I just got my new (slightly used) bike, a 2006 cervelo soloist team. According to the shop the previous owner traded it in for something else. Personally, I love this bike. But after riding it awhile ive noticed a few issues, most are pretty typical of what happens to a new bike when you start riding it, cable stretch, deraileurs needing adjustment etc.
I've noticed that the chain rings are slightly warped, which causes some rubbing on the front deraileur in cadence with my pedal strok in some gears. To go along with that theres a slight clicking sound coming from down in the drivetrain/BB (very difficult to tell where this sound is coming from), again this is in cadence with my pedal stroke, and it is distinct from the chain rubbing on the derailleur. These problems are probably are related. My theory is that the warped chain rings were caused by the previous owner mashing up a hill cross-chained or something.
The other possibility is that its a BB problem, which I don't think it is.
What do you guys reccomend doing about this? And is it ok to ride it much before fixing it?
