And a description of your "weird noise" would really help.

Your description makes me believe it has dirt in it.

That sound might be the sound of an elongated chain. It might be that your chain and freewheel are worn. If so, you'll need to replace both.

i did the test where you lift the chain on highest front and rear and only one tooth was uncovered. this is a pass i guess
