Clicking

[Geoff Pearson]

I've been moaning here about clicking noises. I put on a new chain and cassette in September and
sometime since I noticed this clicking/crunchy sound. Lots of fiddling and new jockey wheels helped.
But last week I put another new chain on and silence reigned - bliss. The September chain, a
Halfords Tyan (I think), was definitely longer than it should be and the PC48 made the difference.

I do 60 miles a week on average going to work - how long should a chain last? I'm not an
aggressive rider.

How often do you clean your chain? I had clicking noises that were alleviated when I
cleaned my chain.

When it gets dirty, often when dusty...sometimes after each ride.
