Let the bells ring out
let the people rejoice
let joy be unconfined!!
Yes - I have found the source of the squeak on my bike!!!
It sounded exactly like the sort fo sound you would get from suspension
which makes sense as I I have suspension on my bike (OK ebike)
but after some fiddling and riding around in a rather unstable position it really seemed ot possible be coming from maybe somewhere further back
maybe around the motor
maybe further back
but not the front
probably
anyway - today I went on my normal ride and when I stopped I sort of fiddled and found that if I held the rear mudguard in exactly the right way and wiggled it on another exactly right way
then it squeaked!!!!
so when I got home I took the rear wheel off and found the relevant fixing on the mudguard was rather muddy and stiff
so I took the bolt out and the spacer and washer
and cleaned it all and put it all back with a load of grease
and it now seems better
I'm just hoping that it still remains quiet when I ride the thing!!!
