But im having two problems. First one very minor. How do i stop my benotto tape from moving? I keel retaping it and have gone over the top with a lighter but everytime i sprint with my hands in the 'on the hoods' position i get this:
Also when cranking down hard I am hearing a little clicking sound every time my left leg pushes down. Did not notice it the first day that i rode the Woodrup but today and yesterday it has been there.
It is not loud but on a track bike (no cables etc to be rattling) that has just been built up
Sounds to me (not an expert by any means) that there may be a crack in the frame but have inspected (especially around the bb lugs) and no signs at all, and there are no dents or any kind of twisting so doesnt seem to have been seriously crashed in a previous life.
I am 99.9 percent sure this is a little scratch from locking up and not a crack:
Have tightened up saddle, seatpost, chainring bolts, pedals, headset seems spot on, BB is brand new so not sure what else it could be.
Can anyone help please?
