I love cocksauce. I use it daily along with other Asian condiments.
Dave, can the RL726 lever fit on the middle section of my Nitto Noodles? If not, would the 31.8 (shim if needed) lever do the trick?

it figures.....I wish Huy Fong would put them out I honestly would have no problem paying whatever they want me to for a water bottle. As it is I often use an empty hotsauce bottle for water

I edited.
I get the same numbers as you. Whether you round up or down will depend on the spokes being used.

Scrod, strange noise problems.
The sqrls Kilo TT makes a "bell-like ring," every time she goes over some bumps or rough roads. I can't replicate it by shaking it like I was King Kong (it's kind of fun because she has the 44cm).
Then on my M300, given that I haven't cleaned the drivetrain or lubed it up in the last month, I'm starting to hear squeaks when I start to pedal at a faster pace, and then I hear more of a creaking noise (think old rocking chair) ONLY on the right crank arm. I have a feeling that I should rinse the chain, lube it up, and clean the gears, tighten up the BB since it has been a while. Could be something else, though.
Any idea as to what could fix these noises?

A "bell-like ring". Hmmmm....... Is it a brake cable making contact with the frame?
As for you, clean your chain, lube it and make sure your crank arm bolts and chainring bolts are tight. Also, check your saddle and maybe put a few drops of oil (or even chain lube) where your seatpost clamp makes contact with the rails.

And yes the cable is in constant contact with the frame, since it's SS and has a rear cable. I think it might be touching the headset also.

Can you replicate it by dropping the bike from a few inches off the ground?
Also, I may need to see a video of you shaking the bike like King Kong to make sure you're doing it right.

I'll try to remember that when my new camera comes in lol
I'll see in a bit about dropping the bike off the ground.

Since creaking is already being talked about...
Have you ever heard of a BB creaking and then suddenly stopping? When I put it on, it had pretty much never been ridden (same for the cranks themselves), and it wouldn't stop creaking. Now it doesn't make any noise. Could this be bad?

Hub bearings have a break in period, might be the same for bottom brackets.

Dave, I got a chance to drop the bike from off the ground, and it indeed does replicate the "bell-like ring" noise.
Although at first I thought it was coming from the front, I cannot tell where it's coming from any more. I think it's coming from somewhere from the front-center part of the bike.
