I’ve been talking with Wahoo support on this but am curious if I’m alone. Whenever I move my bike from side to side on the MOVE, I get a “clacking” sound like there’s something hitting against something else. Support suggested spraying a lubricant on the rail which hasn’t helped. Video attached. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this just how the trainer works/is designed or is this a problem? > **[iCloud Photos - Apple iCloud](https://www.icloud.com/photos/#0fe2Lr_kcE8VdwlaOmi1m4DQA)** > > View, organize, and share photos and videos with iCloud Photos on the web.

Welcome to the forums @tedsvo ! I do get some noise when rocking the bike side-to-side on the KICKR MOVE. There are some hard stops that the trainer is running in to that limit the range of movement. I think as long as the noise comes at the end of travel on each side, then it’s probably normal. I think of it more as a bit of a “clunk” as the rocking mechanism hits the end stop. I just had a quick listen to the video you posted and I think it sounds similar to mine. I’ve only heard it while riding the bike on the MOVE, so I’ve been a bit further away. ---

Sounds about the same as mine, too. I normally don’t notice as I usually ride with my headphones on, but when I move my bike back and forth it does make the same noise when it hits the hard stops on either side. ---

Ok, this is reassuring. Thanks to you both! ---

Update: Wahoo Support got back to me and said “After reviewing the video with our hardware team, we believe that your KICKR MOVE is experiencing a hardware issue and will need to be replaced.” 🤷‍♂️ ---

@tedsvo how did this turn out in the end? I’ve noticed the same on mine (though I can’t access the video you shared anymore) and was hoping it was just as the others have described – did you end up having to get it replaced? ---

They did replace it, and my new one doesn’t make this sound (and, I should say, has a little less side to side range of motion). I’m not sure if it would have just been ok to keep using, but replacing it did resolve the issue. ---

Mine is doing the same [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/thesufferfest/original/3X/6/b/6b86e879a6e1ebe1ecb5898aecd2d666fd1bd31e.jpeg "Wahoo Move Rattles #2") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWQ1vPgiVrI)
