Good day one and all. I have a creak......yes a creak I say. I have a dm ringmaster which has been well ridden, dropped and generally thrown about the place, and I've noticed a creak emanating from the wheel. It seems to creak more when my right foot is down. I think this may be because when I hop I nearly always put most pressure on my right foot and have the right pedal back. What I was wondering was whether it would be most likely to be my hub, or spokes, or cranks or what. If anyone could shed some light on the matter it'd be much appreciated, as I have a horrible feeling that pretty soon it'll be one hop too many and I'll have a whole bunch of unicycle spares up for sale.
go around the wheel squeezing pairs of spokes together (neighbouring spokes on the same side)
you will most likely find some that are alot looser than the others. Chances are, they may be so loose that you can spin the nipples with your fingers.
