Default Re: clunking chain noise

checked front / rear sprockets ok
cleaned out front sprocket
checked wheel alignment ok
checked rear wheel bearings ok
re-checked chain there is one link which is tight to move , not completely seized it has limited movement , chain is scotoilered & apart from this link is in good condition.
have cleaned chain again & lubed however still making clonking noise at low speeds ..
Chain only has 9k on ( normally get 20k +) , however chain is a Iris and after having it fitted heard a lot of poor reviews for iris chains .

Trouble is I'm in Kent Tuesday - Friday , therefore will not be able to get chain replaced .... & I'm hoping to go on the NW3 weekend ... ARGHHHHH

Cheers Steve
