Two of today's jobs were definitely contenders for the demolition derby - first was a brake block which had worn down to the metal holder and then spent a few weeks still being used despite the 'awful noise' the customer described - result a trashed rim and the cost of a new wheel. Second was a bike in for a routine service making a racket at the rear hub and with a severe wobble. Invesigation revealed a fractured axle and bent q/r skewer - the latter holding the whole thing together of course. On informing the Customer he admitted that it had been making a bit of a squeaking noise at the back!
Motto of the tale - if there is a 'funny noise'don't leave it - find out what is causing it!!
