      Also guys. My front derailleur is scraping a little on the smallest cog, and when i untighten L screw, nothing happens. Do i need to loosen the cable?

      Also: when im in the lightest gear on the bike, the rear cassette cog makes ticking sounds i think aprox every crank revolution(?), i think the derailleur indexing is oerfectly alligned, im thinking maybe the B screw adjustment is bad?

      Assume you’ve been riding in the rain. Water can penetrate the non-pressurised part of the rim via the spokes. Many wheels come with drainage holes to help the water escape. You may need to take the wheels off and lay them down with the drainage holes right at the lowest point to help the water make its way out.
