I've done about 500 miles on my PC Disc 8 and I've recently noticed a regular ticking noise which I can't find the reason for and its slowly driving me nuts!
It happens once each turn of the pedals regardless of gear so I guess its something to do with the crank mechanism.
I have also noticed a "crunchy" feeling through the pedals especially in higher gears, rather like a rough bearing or as if the chain was slightly out of alignment.
I've taken off the chain guard and cleaned everything, lubed up the chain and checked all cogs for wear but everything looks fine. Also checked the Alfine hub for adjustment and all is well.
My gearing is higher than standard - 41/11/16- and I've removed one link from the chain as advised.
Would appreciate any ideas of what to look for as I'm miles away from 50Cycles..
