Stopping the Click

Finally I stopped an annoying clicking sound on my mountain bike. It only happened when I pedaled under load. Here's what I did to stop it (using http://www.jimlangley.net/wrench/keepitquiet.htm):

• Removed the water bottle cage and all other bolts in the frame and greased them up.
• Re-greased the seat post and seat post bolt
• Loosened the front derailleur clamp and greased it up
• Put a dab of chain lube on each part of the frame that the shifter cables run through
• Bought new pedals (Candy 2s :)
• Bought a new bottom bracket (noticed mine had some slight side-to-side play in it)
• Used teflon tape on the threads of the new BB
• Removed each chain ring bolt and applied some loc-tite
• Removed the crank arms and greased them (octa-link... never do this to square taper!)
• Finally, I sprayed silicon lube on the right crank arm where it is in contact with the large chain ring. That did the trick!
