Phantom Pedal

silverfridge said:

I had just finished a hell hard MUni ride in the heat, and i felt this
odd clikking sensation in my foot, it turned out the pedal was coming
undone, i quickly carried it to a friends house, who screwed it back
in again, but i can still feel a clikking sensation, the weird thing
being the pedal isnt unscrewing, it is also making a kind of "CRITCH"
noise when i ride, but not when i spin it, also, it doesnt spin as much
as the other one.
What is this?
i hope it is not bad

sounds like it could be either the bearings or the pedals thread, but
that is only a guess from wat u have sed!!

i have this exact problem after riding my kh for a few weeks. no matter
how hard i tightened the bolt to the crank it always wiggled and made
noises. turns out is was the berring and it was pretty easy to fix.
all i had to do was pop this plastic cap off the end of the pedel
opposite the bolt that you screw into the crank, inside there are a
bunch of nuts that loosen or tighten the berring. after a bit of
experimentation i had the problem fix. good luck🙂

Are you sure it's still the pedal making the noise and causing the
clicking sensation? Check that the crank didn't work loose while the
pedal was loose.
