Slight clicking on occasion from SPD pedals

daniel_b

Hello all,

been doing some serious miles recently, and have started using the pull and push technique, as opposed to just pushing, which has yielded phenomenal results - well for me anyway!

The only annoyance being a clicking that must be coming from the pedals, and I am wondering if it is just a case of trying to wind the tension in, or if it means they or the cleats are too worn?

Many thanks

Dan

Probably the pedal itself - my brand new XT pedals did this last week.

Unscrew the spindles, take it out, cover in good quality grease, replace and it will probably go. Unlikely the actually cleats/interface would click.

Could also be that the bottom bracket needs lubricating.

BB problems usually result in more of a creak than a click (I find).

Thanks chaps,

will give that a go, fairly sure it is not the bb, but I have a new HTII one ready to fit at any rate.

Cheers

I had this, thought it was the pedals then thought it was the BB. In the end it turned out to be the rear hub which needed a clean and lube. Took me a while to work that one out...
