    New annoying noise when I pedal

    Thanks... i do have the leaflet from Electrifying Cycles it's just too complex and I don't know where to start. I will now try to decipher what you said about the yellow things lining up..... I know that when the thumb thing is in the furthest right position it makes another different noise...

    I needed a lightweight one, one that didn't have this massive bulge at the end so the drilling option was a no go. it also had to get into confined spaces so again was not an option.
