My DD Crystalite is noisier than my geared Mac

[BarkMau]

It is a squeaky type noise like if it was a dried out bushing coming from the axle area. Anyone knows what this is/how to address it?
Thanks.

Any squeaking I have had was loose spokes.

Well, that makes lots of sense I have bent spokes all over that wheel.

You can find that info on utube somebody did a bearing change on that hub, NKS were removed and some other type instaled

Could easily be spokes, but if that doesn't fix it then it might be a bearing. I'm assuming you already eliminated the possibility it's the motor cover or a disc rotor rubbing and squeaking.

It is the spokes. I can't believe I didn't notice that earlier. 24" rim, large hub, and 12g spokes: Bad combo, It isn't possible to achieve spokes' proper tension. Buyer beware. Happy holidays!!
