I've got a clickity clack sound coming from the middle chain ring on a very new cycle. It sounds like a locomotive in its regularity. The sound occurs with all rear gearing but only occurs on the middle chainring. Trimming does not make a difference. Any ideas?

Check the fasteners on that ring, they could be coming loose. All you will need in a case like this is the following. Screw driver, 5mm allen wrench.

Thanks Kona. I'll check that.
