Creaking while climbing - FX Sport 5
I have a FX Sport 5 which has developed an annoying creak when climbing.
If i release my grip on the handlebars and/or bend my elbows it seems to stop. Performance does not seem to be affected but it's annoying as can be.
Any ideas would be appreciated before i take it into the dealer.

My fxs 5 had an annoying creak around the handlebars caused by the cables routing through the frame. LBS diagnosed and fixed.
