Bottom ends don't rattle or at least that's not the word I would use to describe a noise in the bottom end.


I think it's possible to get a look at the big ends and mains without removing the top end. I've never done it but I think it's doable.

To actually remove the crank and mains you would prob need a full strip not that hard to do.....................but some level of competence would be handy.
