is it dry and maybe picked up a bit of grit ? - never had a BB/AP sound like that
least you know how it all comes apart now
no it's not dry!
the brother in law used copper slip on the bearing and face, he even said it felt a good quality bearing,
but his ****part one is quiet an mine is noisey as fook
just shows you don't get what you pay for
do ya think it'll settle in?

Well, not today, but yesterday actually.
Drilled a load of holes to run cable-ties through to hold my front wiring looms in place. Siliconed the holes up from the inside. Waxoiled them up from underneath.

It was stuff I got from my local Partco a wee whiles back bj for doin' inside the rear tub, it's made by Bodyline. I thinned it down a little with standard thinners and used a normal spray gun and compressor to stick it on with so it is smooth
