What is causing this noise? Is it normal?

What noise? What does it sound like? Can you tell where it's coming from? Does it happen when only when you're pedalling hard? Does it happen only when you're out of the saddle?– Will VousdenAug 10, 2016 at 16:00

I edited my post so that the video reference is more obvious. I think that the noise is caused by a friction between the chain guard and the chain itself.– Yassine ImounachenAug 10, 2016 at 16:05

Sorry, I didn't realise it was a video, since my browser wouldn't play it!– Will VousdenAug 10, 2016 at 16:11

I found the source:
The chain and the other thing (I'd love to know what it's for by the way) were too close. The image is showing them after the adjustment.

@Carel Well, it's my fault I think: When I was tightening the hub (I had taken the wheel off to change the tube), the cable rotated clockwise too. I had to push it away from the chain while tightening the big screw. Aug 11, 2016 at 10:22
