It felt smooth but clacked and farted when ridden on. The bastards can't be fixed, they aren't designed to be put back together. You'll have to chuck it and get another one.
It's FSA for what it's worth. Are they the same? I can hear the cashregister dinging right now.

Thanks for the tip. Still....
