Bikes: Catrike 559 I own some others but they don't get ridden very much.

1. Grab one of your pedals and try to push it sideways relative to the frame. If you can feel any motion you probably have a bad bottom bracket. That's not a common problem on a year old bike but it's not unheard of either.

2. Since your brake squeak happens once per wheel revolution, you probably have a brake rotor that isn't quite true. Try to see where the rub occurs and gently tweak the rotor back into line.
