Thanks for the bike biggs682. Couldn't resist and took her for a spin for 15 miles when we got home. Ride is like a dream and would agree that the intermittent "knock" is probably the BB. Was more pronounced on the hills. Will be fitting the 7 speed cassette I have, to give me a bit more gearing because it was a tad to high for me.

Off to the LBS tomorrow to get the BB, new saddle and some new peddles so I can clip in.

Really happy.
