I have a squeaky back wheel thats really annoying. Once every revolution there is a loud squeak that is driving me nuts. I have tried different tyres and tubes and dusted the inside with talc to no avail. The wheels are good almost new mavis SUP's so i don't think it's them. Any ideas most welcome .
thanks

Perhaps the squeak is coming from the hub or bottom bracket?

Check the rubber seals either side of the hub/axle. These are known to squeak and rub as they rotate on new wheels. They normally shut up as they wear and dry out.

Alternatively it might not be coming from the wheels?
