  • On my townie I get a load squarking noise when I stand up and pedal with the left pedal hard, but not when I pedal hard with my right pedal. It feels like the noise/vibration is coming from the rear hub. Any ideas?

  • is this a creaky-squark?

    I had a similar thing to a beater-y, rattlecanned 531 frame, except it would often happen when I mashed the pedals sitting down too: Checked the bottom bracket, the pedal spindles and threads, crank arms, saddle rails, rear spokes &c &c

    Turned out to be a seat stay that had pinged off the seat tube, but couldn’t be seen with the naked eye when the bike was stationary.
