Riding today and noticed a click and a creek when putting power down both seated and standing.
Checked everything and I noticed it seemed to be coming from the rear mech (Sram Red AXS).
When you push the cage towards the wheel (without much force) then pull it towards you it clicks and creeks from one of the pivots.
I’ve popped a little bit of oil on the pivot and got the creek to stop but I’m concerned at the amount of play in the pivot which results in a click in the pivot bolt (which doesn’t seem serviceable). The ‘bolt’ seems to be moving up and down.
Could I ask if anyone else with a Force or Red AXS rear mech to check how much ‘play’ your mech has when pushing and pulling it to towards and away from the wheel?
Ive checked my 11sp X01 mech and it hardly has any movement in the pivots and it’s over 3 years old.
