sound coming from chain

[nudgedoink]

hi, ive recently replaced my chain to a fatter one (rk 428 series) than my stock chain. ive also replaced the sprockets. i hear a clicking sound when i turn my wheel.. this was worse on the first day i changed it and my mech loosened my chain and the sound did become softer. however, then sound is still there.

 

i think my chain is quite loose already and i am wondering if this is common with new chains and sprockets.. maybe must "run in" the new parts?

 

also, due to the greater thickness of my chain, my front sprocket bracket had to be filled down abit so as not to let the chain ride bracket when moving. so now this may also be another reason for the sound.

 

need to ask u guys tho whether new chains and sprockets make such sounds when first changed. btw, i lubed my chain and the sound seemed to be softer.

anyone has any knowledge on chains? haha

since u changed your chain to bigger one, i think it is rubbing some parts of the bike.

hm, thats what im worried about.. guess i'll go purchase smaller bolts for the front sprocket and ask my mech change and see how
