My Stumpy has got a really annoying rattle when going fast over repeated rough terrain (rock gardens / stutter bumps mainly). It is definitely from the rear end.
Things I’ve checked:
All bolts are done up correctly (plus it’s the last model Stumpjumper with the flex stay suspension so not that many bolts to check!)
Brakes – they are the infamous rattling shimano slx, BUT the rattle remains even if I pull the back brake. I suppose the only way to fully be sure is to remove the rear pads and give it a ride, but given it only happens when going fast over rough terrain I’m a bit apprehensive of doing so.
The clutch on the mech – thats what I first thought it was but it’s fine and working as it should.
Any other ideas? Thanks!
