Leader 735 frame creaking
bicycles reviews | bicycles videos | bicycles online
Bottom bracket and crankset lubricated and tightened. Seatpost tube and seat clamp checked and greased, several saddle/seatpost combos tried. Both feet off the pedals, this noise is still here. I will not draw any conclusion before hearing back from Leader Bikes.

hi there I'm also having the same creaking noise. Did you get an outcome from leader bikes?

+OneKed hey bro I know for sure your rear cog (rear sprocket) is on backwards and the teeth on your rear cog are closer to your rim spokes which your chain is rubbing on your spokes with every turn, so if you have a chainwhip flip your rear cog over also making sure your lockring is on correctly.... have a good ride. :)

I think it's trying to cry out to you, to change that Orange that you have on it. Shit looks ugly as fuck bro

okay well sounds like you checked everything but the chainring bolts...

I have the same problem, however i ride the 725. I think its the bb though not the frame, which i think is also the case with your bike. Im changing my bb tomorrow, ill let you know if that solves the creaking problems.

Did you figure out what it was?
I had same noise on my 725 frame - turned out to be seatpost tube. I has a separate sleeve that holds the seatpost which is only spot welded at the bottom, or not welded at all. When you apply force sideways (regular pedaling) or bakc and forth (accelerate/decelerate) it has a little play and that little amount of play creates noise which drives you nuts. I sent mine back to leader, wasted 2 months, got a brand new replacement frame, and still same issue. I think I'll send it once again and then will get rid of it asap. Other than that I loved the frame, but this issue will make me jump on leader hate-wagon -
Definitely a bb problem

Doesn't sound like the frame. Sounds like your bottom bracket is messed up.
