Troubleshooting
Clicks and Squeaks ~
With so many movable parts being used in varied road
conditions, weather, and climate even the most refined bicycles sometimes pick
up noises such as clicks or squeaks. A loud or regular noise should be promptly
examined by a trained bicycle mechanic. Small intermittent clicks or squeaks can
usually be overlooked unless they become regular, loud, or just annoying. Our
mechanics are specially trained to search out squeaks and clicks in a
step-by-step procedure. After identifying the noise by test riding our mechanic
will clean, lubricate, and reassemble the most obvious culprits then proceed
down the list. Each step is followed by a test ride until the noise is
determined to be gone.
Due to their nature, we cannot guarantee the elimination of noises that
only show up intermittently.
Labor charge is $60 for initial diagnosis and $60 per hour for additional
time past the first hour. New parts, if
needed, are additional unless covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
Warranty Service for clicks or squeaks:
