Just got my first race bike. Has onyx hubs and a shimano disc brake.

When pedaling it makes this sound. Any idea if it’s normal? And what is causing it?

Has anyone had any experience with the SEI parts kit from crucial Bmx shop?

Looking for feedback on this or if it’s junk. Made in Taiwan

Kit includes

130mm Lock on Grip
8" Rise Bar (2°Rise, 10°Back)
53mm Stem
45/45 1-1/8 Headset with Starnut
3 pc Steer Spacer
20" Cromo 10mm Dropout Fork
102pt Cassette hub on Alexrim Wheelset 10mm axles
20x1.75 Arisun XLR8 Tires
KMC Chain (Not Pictured)
Euro Bottom Bracket
SEI Rear brake and Lever
1 Piece seat and post

I just started racing this year, and have an opportunity to buy a chase frame and a few parts for 150$ from a guy at my local track I race against.

Will need to get the rest of the parts I need but I think this could be a good bike.

What’s your opinion?

Need some help on why approach to take for this patio resurface

Patio is 14x4ft and has a top coat on it that is starting to fail. Owner said it’s been there before they moved in 14 years ago

I’m not sure what product is currently on there. But my plan is to remove all loose material, feather grind the edges smooth for a decent transition, then apply a poly/modified mortar patch then cement top coat the whole porch.

Please advise is this would be a decent approach or if you recognize the material on there that I can try and source

Thank ya

I know it’s not the most practical thing but I want it. Anyone have an idea on the yellow handled tool?
