had a problem with my bikie after only its second outing, took it back to the shop where i bought it telling them about the problem, which is that i feel clicking which gets progressivly louder and feels like it is clicking harder when i put more power down or get out the saddle, they said they had sorted it as only a few things needed tightening, however ive tried it out a little later and its still there, im going to remove the clipless pedals i put on there and then try the original pedals it came with to try and find the problem with trial and error, i thought it may be the clipless pedals/shoes/cleats....any further ideas??! its really annoying, its a brand new fricking bike!

    I had this recently on my bike... I solved it this weekend by tightening the LH crank cap that had worked loose (one that pre-loads the bottom bracket bearings). A dose of Loctite 243 then should hold it in place (should only have a small torque ~1.5Nm).

    Not sure if this is the same problem, but the symptoms are similar...
