Binned the half link. Put a new chain on today cheap knc just to test and its running silent. Took it out for a long run and it was silent all the way. It was definately the chain. I used the wipperman on a dh before and it was really strong and reliable with no stretch. Good advice! Ill stay clear of shimano. Sram any good? Probs just get a Knc. Thankyou so much for the advice guys!

Guys....it was the chain! Took the chain completely off and then sat on the bike bouncing my body weight off the peddles and pushing against it and it was silent. Chain back on and the creak was there. Next question is..do i have to get a single speed specific chain or can it be any kind? Any one recommend any from chain reaction cycles as i have a voucher? Thanks for all the help!!

Is there anyone knowledgeable free around Surrey Quays area to have a quick look at my bike and potentially diagnose a fault? Ive checked all the mechanic/fixing boards and im just not knowledgeable enough and i dont want my pants pulled down when i take it a shop.
Basically, creak/crunch from around crank and bb area. Doesnt do it when coasting, just when you apply force/weight. More force you apply the louder the noise. Doesnt creak when you dont peddle. No lateral movement by hand, slight flex when applying force (is that normal?). Have noticed that the crank teeth are not centre in the chain but rather to one side.
Its a square taper bb, with Pro wheel 170mm cranks, Shimano 46T chainring and a Halflink chain.
Ive Checked all bolts are tightened. Checked spokes are tight. Tightened and loosened the chain to no affect. Checked pedals and one does have a ever so slight play but thats silent.
Help :(
OH! Also, anyone know a good mech around the south east area?
Thanks

Although the membrane has a hydrostatic head of around 18k no zips and pockets of any northface jacket from any lines or series are waterproof. Only the 3 layer membrane goretex fabric is. Just thought id give a heads up as i worked for Northface in my last job and you wouldnt believe how many ruined smart phones we got in with their angry owners.
