Is it difficult to do a post-break-in wheel tune-up? It's more than just tightening the ones that feel loose. Making an adjustment like that can have a ripple effect on both roundness and true of the wheel. |

Why does my bike make a noise when I pedal hard? All stock parts on a brand new bike a little over a year ago. The bolts were definitely not cross threaded. Again the damage just isn't consistent with that kind of abuse. |

Why does my bike make a noise when I pedal hard? Agreed not the BB proper. The BB threading appeared and was even cleaned when replacing the crank bolt 3 times. Each crank bolt ended up with burrs in one spot rather than what I would consider typical wear (shifted/rounded threading). I think there was either fine debris that I couldn't remove of a manufacturing defect as this issues begin very early in the bike's life and I have gone over it many times trying to address the issue. Perhaps you are right and it wasn't adjusted properly in the beginning, but the damage to the threads just doesn't seem consistent to me. |

Why does my bike make a noise when I pedal hard? I just replaced a BB this week which was damaging the threading on the crank arm bolts and was producing creaks. I don't know enough about BB servicing and high end BB do know if that is a replaceable part. I do know that in my case, it was not a matter of the bearings being shot (grinding) however the BB did need to be replaced (at $30). Assuming a much more expensive bottom bracket I would certainly look into whether the piece was replaceable. |
