Dinamo light makes noise
#1
Hello.
Got a city bike for commutes with super low frame, very nice. However, the dinamo light thingy on the back wheel makes awful sound. So I was forced to disable it and bike without any light in the dark. Might be the tire with wrong profile? I will provide pics tomorrow. Thanks.

Isn t it simply adjusted too high? Might also be too close to the tire when turned on; pressures much. I had this type of light on my very first bike around 20 years ago, felt like there were concerns all the time Big Grin Classic.
