Stupid question 🚨. Is Uncle Drago Cleat?
I only ask, as I've just clocked his advice thread, and had a flashback.

I had that thought too and... I have his email address.

Drago does sound a bit cleatwood-esque

So many new members. Cant all be real. Or Cycling enthusiasts. I NEVER see so many actual real people outside on the roads.

At least half must be Chinese based BOTS......

I've been called worse.

Isn't it the choice of freehub rather than the wheels that makes the particularly loud noise? If you put an ordinary Shimano freehub on a whatever brand of wheel it'd be relatively quiet wouldn't it?

I don't know because I don't have a vast array of wheels and freehubs to experiment on.

You are correct. Another solution is adding grease.

I'm sure you could, but I'm not going to go out and buy fairly expensive wheels that I immediately have to replace the freehub on.

Another refugee from BR. A lurker rather than contributor in general.

Brian will be along shortly to put you right and tell you that he's an EU based BOT

That would be factually incorrect though, unless I've missed something.

Anyway, remember, no politics here 😎

Thank you Spokey Dokey but I do not think that there was anything wrong with my account..

There was... it was not showing you as full member of the site. Not sure why though.

One thing we've omitted to tell the BRFR is that once every 12 months there is a 3-hour CC Forum Rules refresher course, delivered online, with a simple 100-question quiz at the end to check that everything has been taken in. The pass standard is 87%, and a graph will be published of the results, with one axis unlabelled and the other not starting at 0.

Maybe he's not all there.

... I also don't think Elizabeth Rizzini is on Cycle Chat, sadly.

Never heard of her, tbh.

Bike Radar got too expensive, so I've come here.

I have a great reputation for balanced and moderate debate though, so don't worry.
