rattle

Chain slack?
My own chain needs adjusting so seldom that I sometimes go for quite long distances before I get round to checking the slack -and more often than not it doesn't need adjusting even then. But, it usually catches me out at the end of a long tour and that's when it starts to make a noise -usually when pulling away and the load twangs it against the swing arm.

thats what i thought it was so pulled over at a yam dealer somewhere in south west wales to have a look,bought some chain lube and checked the chain,have got a slight tight spot but not enough to cause the rattle  :\
