Hi,
I brought an Argos 'Boss Reflex' cycle for £129 in November
which I exchanged (for the same model) two weeks ago because
of bottom bracket bearing problems.
Now the new bike is playing up! First I got side-to-side
play from the cranks which a friendly Halfords engineer
sorted out for me (apparently the bb mechanism consists of
component parts which is the old way of doing things).
The latest problem (which I hope you can help me with) is a
distinct 'clunking' sound which happens in all gears and is
mostly associated with any pressure on the right hand pedal
(where the three chain thingies are) when it is at the top
of its 'orbit'.
Er, I'm not very knowledgeable about bikes, nor very good at
describing symptoms, but I hope the foregoing may make some
sense to somebody!
I also hope its easy for someone like me to sort out
Thankyou in advance,
