I need to get Garth to help me locate and *!!!annihilate* the hateful, annoying creak/whine/buzz from the SKS P65 fenders on my Matthews. It sounds like a stay or a stay bracket is momentarily and very lightly rubbing against the tire, but I can't identify which stay or bracket and I can't catc

I once had a creaking that that seemed crank/bb related, took off cranks and bb, reinstalled BB with teflon tape, IO even tried light grease on tapers, something I've never ever done. Chainring bolts tight. Pedals and all that jazz fine. Still ... it came in went. "Maybe it's the weather y

I know you said that it happens when you’re seated or standing, but I’d still see if it’s related to the saddle. Ride around without the seatpost installed and see if it still creaks. I’m just saying that because half the time I’ve been hunting down a creak that seems to be coming from the cra

Take the cranks off and check the frame tubes around the bottom bracket shell. You may find cracks in the tubing right at the edges of the bottom bracket lug sockets. The cracks in the tubes will show up as cracks in the paint. Peter White On Sun, Aug 11, 2019 at 3:48 PM Nathan Neuberger wrote:

I have a 10-ish year old Homer Hilsen. This summer on a hilly ride, it suddenly developed a creaking sound seeming to come from the left crank. It is not a 'clicking' noise but rather a 'creaking' sound. The sound occurs when the left crank is rotating under load from about the 12:00 positi

+1. I used the Honjo, smooth, H50 w/ Berthoud stays to minimize TCO. The Honjo's are the fenders that I prefer, having used SKS, VO, Planet Bike, Berthoud and Blumels. Here is a pic of my AHH that had Paul Racers brazed on, so I had the Honjo fenders painted to match with the touch up color.
