Why does my bike make rumbling noises when it is on speed 1 on the front and speed 1 on the back?
I have a GMC Denali 700c road bike and it has 21 speed. It only makes the rumbling sound when I am on speed 1 and 1 on both the front and back. Also, this is only the case when I flip my bike up side down to fix/inspect it. When I am riding it it does not make any noise on that gear and it seems fine. Is this normal? Why exactly is it making that noise? Im afraid I might damage the bike if I just leave it that way and keep riding. Also is there anyway to possibly fix this at home? Please help!!!
