Can anyone help me with a rainy day fix.

I have recently installed a new XT crank with hollowtech 2 BB and the squeak is driving me mad. I greased the BB parts before inserting them as recommended. cant remember if I greased the crank.

Any thoughts

Did you grease the pleastic spacers too? My first ht2 squeaked when it was dry and not when it was raining, took me ages to isolate and cure it. Also 'dry' pedal threads can sound like a squeaky bb.

Lovely two more things to go and grease ๐Ÿ˜† forgot to mention, squeak subsides but does not go away completely as the ride goes on!
