Post Clicking
Aug/20/10 13:01 Filed in: Tech
The bolts were tight but it produced a squeaky noise like that of a floor. So we have to remove the trailing arm from the Cambering Mechanism so the we can remove that plunger in the arm lock. Needless to say that was not it. After careful thought I began to disassemble the column and found the culprit. The riser or stem post that the bars and gooseneck are attached to has a small plastic plug inset into the bottom of the post. It had worked loose and fallen into the bottom of the column. I turned the trikke upside down to retrieve the plug. The plug was a bit loose so I added a small piece of eletrical tape to the plug and stuffed it back into the post. Once together the noise and click was gone. You see what happens is the clamp that locks the post becomes like a seesaw for the post allowing it to swash back and forth. If you have a simular sound which seems faint, this is most likely your issue.
