It got absolutely mullered when I rode Coast-to-coast in November, then did 40 miles of mud bath bridleway on Festive 500. Stripped it yesterday for a clean. Re-packed the wheel bearings (which still sound awful), stripped cranks and BB (ordered new BB as it's FUBAR) and gave it all a wash. It still looks dirty to me. Chain sounds like I lube with sand. Why is it that it always sounds worse after you clean them?
Cable angle is fixed at least.
