KH 24" Freeride

1. Check the cranks and pedals and make sure there tight

2. If you have a spoke wrench check and see if all your spokes are
tight, if you dont have a spoke wrench bring it to a bike shop and
they'll check it.

3. check your seat,front bumper, and handle bolts to see if there
snugged up

It's probly one of those things because this kind of stuff was lose
when i got my KH and after i tightend everything up it was fine and
dandy.😉

p.s. make sure your cranks are greased up good too.

No, im sure you can ride it without being greased,but not having grease
on the cranks might be whats causing the creaking. Its just better to
be greased because theres not as much stress on everything.

Im not sure if wd-40 will work because i think it should be a little
thicker than that, but other people on here use WD-40 so maybe itll
work. its better than nuthin if you know there is no grease or
lubricant of any kind on the cranks. If you have a grease gun at home
just put a dab on the splines of the hub and smear it evenly all around
and what not.

i dont know to much about greases, but Moterex bike grease 2000 is a
good high quality grease, you can google it and read about it.

I've just been using this grease that i have no idea what it is thats
in this big grease gun that i've had for years.

If you go to ur bike shop they will have some good greases for you to
choose from. You could kill 2 birds with 1 stone and bring your uni in,
have them tighten everything up and what not and buy some grease at the
same time!

Anti sieze
It't probably spokes, as the new Kh's generally don't creak in the hub.

Mine did. I had to tighten the pinch bolts.

'05 KH's don't have pinchbolts. That's '04 or earlier.

When my KH was making noise, it was because my bearings(bottom of the
frame) at the bottom were not tight enough. If it is creaking, they
might be too tight(try loosening them a little), but if when you jump
it is making a clanging metal noise tighten them a little.

Mine creaked, then I tightend the spokes and it stoped.
