god damn it. bike is making weird noises. when i stop pedaling either my hub, bb, or cranks make this knocking sound as the wheel spins. sounds like when you tap a frame with your knuckle. this only happens when cranks are in the 3-9 o'clock-ish position which is odd.

bugs the shit out of me but i don't feel paying a shop $70+ for a full overhaul when it could be a simple fix.

context: went to Westpoint cycles in kerrisdale in the past...wanted to fix a skipping chain and they ended up tuning the whole bike up. ended up happening again after a few hundred KM. did some research and it should have been a 2 minute cable tension adjustment after doing it myself.
