Thanks Alex! Always a good idea. Yeah, I've got Silver triple cranks on this bike, nice and snug. I check them periodically, nothing worse / more preventable than rounding out the inside of the arm from being too loose -br On Wed, Jul 10, 2019 at 4:03 PM Alex Wirth- Owner, Yellow Haus

Since it’s such a quick thing to check off the list...try to snug up your crank arm bolts. I had waited about a month because I was dreading a bottom bracket rebuild after getting a click. Low and behold I got away with a snug-up on my drive-side on a whim. I know you said it’s isolated to

Thanks Dan! Gripster rebuild kit just ordered, I bet that'll do it. Don't want that annoying click going on when I head to the NorCal "Entmoot" campout weekend after next Cheers, -br On Tue, Jul 9, 2019 at 10:09 PM Dan McNamara wrote: > I would definitely try the bearing service on the

I would definitely try the bearing service on the gripsters. I chased a click on my bike for quite a while and finally swapped in a set of RMX pedals I had stashed away for the grinpsters. Click gone. Reminds me to pick up a rebuild kit. Dan > On Jul 9, 2019, at 4:33 PM, Will Rhea wrote:

Thanks Ian! I'll keep this in mind. Looks like they have a Thin Gripster bearing / rebuild kit on the Riv site, I'm going to go ahead and try that for now. Cheers -br On Mon, Jul 8, 2019 at 3:08 PM Ian A wrote: > If using a Shimano sealed bottom bracket with the plastic spacer, check > the

If using a Shimano sealed bottom bracket with the plastic spacer, check the spacer is not cracked. A cracked spacer can cause a rhythmic click. IanA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop

In my experience, this is a bearing issue 100% of the time. I run Crank Bro’s in all my bikes, and have become adept at rebuilding them to correct this. –Eric N > On Jul 8, 2019, at 10:57 AM, Bill Rhea wrote: > >  > Reaching out in case y'all have any remedies for this phenomena... > > So

Reaching out in case y'all have any remedies for this phenomena... So many times I've used a pair of pedals for a while, and then they start making a little click 1x per pedals stroke, usually when putting pressure on the RH pedal. I'm pretty sure I've isolated the click to the pedals
