Found my way to galleywood common sat afternoon (warm up for danbury common)
prophet felt great - just hard work getting there!
but bike developed annoying crack noise from bottom bracket area on way home
its completely random
crank is nice and tight as is bottom bracket and pedals

this is my first full suss set up

any thoughts folks?

Does it do it under pedling only? Itll be either fucked BB or bearings

I'd take everything apart in that area and clean and regrease it.

As mentioned bb is most likely - is the bike a hardtail?
