I had just finished a hell hard MUni ride in the heat, and i felt this odd clikking sensation in my foot, it turned out the pedal was coming undone, i quickly carried it to a friends house, who screwed it back in again, but i can still feel a clikking sensation, the weird thing being the pedal isnt unscrewing, it is also making a kind of “CRITCH” noise when i ride, but not when i spin it, also, it doesnt spin as much as the other one.
What is this?
i hope it is not bad
sounds like it could be either the bearings or the pedals thread, but that is only a guess from wat u have sed!!
sounds like what happend when my thred ripped in my uni
i felt a clicking aswell might be that
i have this exact problem after riding my kh for a few weeks. no matter how hard i tightened the bolt to the crank it always wiggled and made noises. turns out is was the berring and it was pretty easy to fix. all i had to do was pop this plastic cap off the end of the pedel opposite the bolt that you screw into the crank, inside there are a bunch of nuts that loosen or tighten the berring. after a bit of experimentation i had the problem fix. good luck:)

Are you sure it’s still the pedal making the noise and causing the
clicking sensation? Check that the crank didn’t work loose while the
pedal was loose.
