It is a thudbuster seat, anyone come across a similar issue?
I dealt with one of those recently. It turned out to be the stoker’s crank arm just barely grazing the front derailer when it was trimmed all the way out. It’s a friction shifter and apparently I trim a bit farther out later on.
It could also be the stoker’s shoe/cleat when moist from sweat, but those usually start sooner.
