A customer in Denver insisted his creaky bottom bracket was haunted

He brought in a vintage Peugeot, convinced the noise was a ghost because it only happened after midnight. What's the weirdest explanation you've heard for a simple mechanical issue?

So did he ever try just... not riding it after midnight? What's the deal with that?

@ruby_jones it was a creaky crank, not a bottom bracket issue.

Wait, after midnight? Did he only ride his bike at night or something? That's a whole other level of strange.

Yeah, my buddy's neighbor did something like that. Ruby_Jones, it was weird, he'd only take his bike out around 1 AM for these short, quiet rides. Never figured out why.
