Got my new spesh roubaix expert in the spring and love it. However, within the last couple of weeks I've noticed three prominent clicking noises on every downstroke of the left crank when I get out of the saddle to climb a hill. Its worse when in the lower chainring. Surely it cant be the BB worn already after only 500 miles. Any suggestions as to what it might be ??

    Thanks for this Sylvanus.

    Followed the link and it looks as though I should be able to get to the bottom of the problem.

    Hi,
    just sorted a very similar problem on my veloce kitted tifosi.
    Clicking on the down stroke of the right crank.
    LBS said I would need a new BB but on inspection it just needed a re lube/grease and tightening up.
    Thank goodness for good LBS.
