lube ya chain upto the max - i started a thread about this a while back and since then some one else has too- check my history as i replied in his thread too!

it does calm down the noise, but first few rides are noisy as

rock n roll blue extreme is your friend!

B-screw? Dial it out and see if that helps.

The B screw is the tension adjustment on the rear mech. It adjusts the position of the jockey wheel relative to the cassette

the 10 speed stuff is noisy, the b screw can effect it yes, but to be honest its still noisy, people are suggesting its kinda just 10 speed noise...mine has died down since its been ridden a fair bit....

after i degreased the chain (get rid of the shimano oil from the rollers etc) and stuck the rock n roll extreme on it went a hell of a lot quiter too.....

few things to try there, failing that just keep riding and let it bed in....it seems to have worked on mine with a combination of the above two
