KICKR Drive Belt (Gates 6PJ Poly-V)
The rubbing and squealing sounds are characteristic of drive belt glazing or edge-fraying against the pulley flanges. This occurs when the belt loses its factory tension or accumulates micro-debris, resulting in high-frequency vibration and audible slip under high-wattage loads.

Drive Pulley Woodruff Key (5mm x 5mm x 12mm)
A knocking or clicking noise proportional to flywheel speed indicates the drive key has developed play within the pulley slot. This undersized component allows the pulley to 'shuck' back and forth on the shaft during the dead spots of the pedal stroke, creating a metallic clunk.

Flywheel Pulley Hardware Kit (High-Tensile M6/M5 Bolts)
The original fasteners and washers are prone to deformation under the high rotational torque of the flywheel. Replacing them with 10.9 grade steel bolts and hardened washers prevents the pulley from oscillating, which eliminates the 'chugging' or 'vibrating' noise reported by users.
