Hi all,
As you know, I rebuilt the Fondriest. It came out great, save one unpleasent sound...
When I stand to pedal or pedal really hard while sitting, there is a noise coming from the bb area. The noise is synchronized to when I pedal hard. It sounds much more like a squeak than the front der hitting the chain. I know it cannot be coming from the saddle, seatpost, etc because it happens when I am standing as well.
Ok, here is what I have tried so far: (to no avail) :crap:
1.)Teflon tape and locktite on D/A triple botom bracket
2.)Changing out cranksets- FSA carbon triple & D/A triple
3.)Adjusting front der.
I did not have this creaking noise when I had the Campy Chorus triple bb installed and Record triple cranks.
Help!!! The bike-frame is totally silent besides this one VERY LOUD squeak! And, when I am spinning and not mashing, it is totally silent.
Any and all suggestions, opinions, etc. openly welcomed...
As always, thank you all in advance,
Steve
PS: I am not sure if this matters, but the frame is monocoque carbon fiber.
