Creaky colnago c60 noise

As someone else mentioned, try tightening your chain-ring bolts

Have you tried taking it back to the shop you bought it from? that's the first thing I'd be doing personally

It's probably your rear wheel, either you didn't tighten the cassette lockring enough or the hub preload is loose, or - most likely - you've got some shit external cam skewers that aren't tight enough.

Dip the complete bike in a vat of gearbox oil, wipe off the rims and tyres, silencio.......

Lube the seat where the metal stays join the plastic upper. Often squeak like a nightmare and you can't work it out.

Its a common problem with C60s. Dodgy Italian rubbish really, I'd get a good ole' Merkin bike made out of metal if I were you, something like a CAAD 8.

I'll save you the bother of getting rid of the C60 if you like? Tell you what, I'll even come and pick it up for only the petrol money.

So you have a creaky C60 which you also need advice on for a wheelset and a V1R which you need advice on a cockpit for.....

Something here is awry.

As an aside I live near you so can reccomend a good mechanic to help you out and give you some tips. haven't seen any C60s or VR1s round our way yet so I'll keep an eye out for you.

great article on creaky BBs. Good to see someone saying it as it is, everyone knows about how many alloy cannondale have creaky BBs, yet if you look for reviews the vast majority of bike websites or magazines never mention it.

pressfit bottom bracket .... Now there's yer problem .....

As you get older, your hearing will deteriorate and I think you'll find that your bikes get quieter...

You must be Unlucky Alf then.

It's actually spelled miaow.

Meaowwww

It must be nice to have a whisper quiet bike with just general "bike noise" like everyone else seems to have

You're either very, very unlucky or a ham fisted spanner monkey.

You are buying extremely expensive stuff, Pro-tour, top of the range kit and yet constantly finding fault with it. Most people work their way up, learning about how it all works, learning about how it goes together and learning how where and why things are noisy, then fixing it.

As noted elsewhere, I don't think the bike is the problem.

A top tip; stop washing your bikes every time they squeak; they aren't squeaking because they need a wash.

TBH it could be anything! it took me months but i found that on my bike one of the female chainring bolts was causing the creak. Put a little copperslip on the bolt where it sits in the chainring and quiet.

Do you spend all your time listening for weird noises from the latest bit of expensive kit that you've bought? You've got 8 videos on youtube, all purporting to show some strange sound or other, and it's beginning to be a bit odd.

Did you oil the spokes on your wheels?
