For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about: you know when you have slack on a chain, you can move your pedals back and forth a bit before the chain engages fully.. It only makes noise when I'm in the "back" position. Hence when I have any sort of resistance on the cranks while pedaling.

What do you guys think?
New drive train parts are often a little noisy. Let them break in a bit.
