Sorry to bother you all but I'm out of ideas.

I bought a mountain bike 13 days ago that, while it runs okay, has a persistent knocking sound while doing so. I've checked over the brakes, gears and every other part of the bike, tweaking and retweaking everything I can think of. Nothing seems to work.

I'm reasonably sure that the problem is connected to the pedals somehow as the sound doesn't appear when I freewheel. I'm tempted to take the thing back but I would rather fix the problem.

It's not a great quality bike but I expected it to not start this kind of crap for a few months at least, not a few minutes.

I tried googling the product but kept getting rerouted to a car with a similar name.

If anyone's got any ideas I'm all ears.

Much appreciated.
