Hanneke Sep 2007 9:14pm, 7 Sep 2007 20,590 posts	0 Hanneke I suspect loose crank or loose bottom bracket? Did you get it from a shop? If so go back and let them have a look at it. It is always a good idea to run over all the bits and peices on a bike that can loosen themslevs up, especially on a new bike. I Holland we get an after sale service with each new bike we buy, where you go back after a month, then after 6 months for a tune up and tightening session... Pedals could be loose too? Have you fallen with the bike? Could also be a bent crank rubbing against the chain wheel? Or it could be hitting the derailleur?

Hanneke Sep 2007 9:19pm, 7 Sep 2007 20,593 posts	0 Hanneke Yes, as long as it is just loose... pitty you are so far away, I'd come and show you how to tighten it up
