Focus Thron2, strange rattle.

[Jaffan]

Hi. A strange squeek/rattle started to appear a couple of weeks ago. It seems as it comes from the motor when i push down the pedals. I removed the motor and re-tighted all the bolts but the sound is the same.

If i weigh down the saddle while still a similar but much more subtle clicking is heard. Attaching file. Glad for any help. Closest dealer is far far away from my location. And no, the crocs are not for sale.

That’s quite a hearse clicking. I had what a thought, a saddle creak but it ended up being the seatpost inside the seat tube so I took it out, cleaned it and greased it and that has gone…. But… it was a different creak to yours.

does it happen if stood off the saddle?

I also recently removed all rear suspension pivot points, greased the contact surfaces and threads and torqued them to correct spec.
