Nope. Horizontal dropouts and single speed setup. If it was loose, it'd be out.

If it's easy to remove this chain (ie. has a reusable connecting link) try removing the chain and coasting down a bumpy hill. Whether the sound stays the same or changes will rule some stuff in and other stuff out, helping to narrow the focus.
Otherwise, you have to gown the list of everything that might be loose, including anything bolted together.
Yeah, not easy I know. This one's got me pretty stumped, hence why I'm asking. I'll try coasting chainless tomorrow, I have a kmc quicklink, good idea, thanks.
