Took my tt bike out for a spin last night and there is a serious noise coming from my crank. Racing Athy tomorrow morning so needless to say there is a serious rush to get it sorted.

Working up in Dawson street so took the bike with me today. Need to bring it to a shop at lunchtime. Can anyone recommend me a good bike shop in the city centre that could sort it for me? Usually do all my dealings with the local shop but wont make it to them before closing tonight...

You could try Cycleways on Parnell St, it sounds like you might need to change your bottom bracket. A new one is about €26 plus
fitting.

Cycleways unlikely to do things there and then I am afraid.

Can you describe the noise further?

Every time I pedal the drive side makes a clanking sound.

If you take the chain off at the front i.e. drop it and spin the cranks do you still get the noise?
