I just got into mtb-ing 3 months ago on a 01' gt agressor 1.0. It's not a great bike, but it's decent...and i figured it'd be a good bike to learn on.
anyways i mostly do urban stuff, and whenever i do bunny hops, the bike makes so much noise on landing. My roommate has a 01' Kona stuff with hayes hydraulic...and his bike is so quiet when he hops. I'm thinking it's a combination of my crappy rims (which i've bent several times), the chain, and maybe the spokes. I got lizard skins to protect my frame from chain-slap...but it doesn't help much with noise.
Any suggestions on how to get rid of the annoying sounds?
