Hi Guys.
Long time no see eh.
Sorry but i havent got the use of my computer at the mo so am using the one in this house, and i have been offline because the wife and i have parted.
Great more time to do the things i want to do like ride when i want.
I need a new password as i cant remember my old one so i cant sign in to my user name so i am uising this one.
Well i rode around on the carbon bike through the summer and all was well, then i noticed a creak which got louder in the dry weather and i could not figure out if it was the carbon seat post or the Risse rear shock.
The seat post sleave came loose again after i did a couple of jumps on the bike so i fixed that for good with two self tapping screws [smiley=nod.gif]
Has anyone else suffered with creaking noises from the rear shock.

Hi Dom,sent you a PM regarding going out on a ride,as for your creaking can't remember if your using like me an Easton CT2 carbon post ???,if you are I had trouble with mine creaking at the saddle mount,I removed the 2 mounting bolts and greased between the seat rail mounting plates and lubed around the pivot pin,cured my creaking,still have to redo it occasionally.

Too late now to cure problem as i striped the frame and built up the flying monkey for the winter.
Still you can have the carbon frame assey i built to play with and bend [smiley=nod.gif]
Lets hope the weather is good for that weekend but too cold just nice and damp.
I have been running the xtr hollow bb 04 which i have to say is quite good though a bit expensive.
The Pace forks are brill though and at long last Pace have got it right.
