- > Has anyone ever worked out what that pinging noise is when your weight is over a front wheel? It sounds like spokes shifting.>
-
- Is this pinging noise that same creaking noise we hear from the straining
- handlebars ?
-
- Or is it loose/over tightened spokes !!!
-
- Worse still that unsolved mystery of the noise that won't go away !!
-
- Try oiling the stem clamp, check for rust on steel bars - especially under
- the stem clamp, better still ask around everyone has suffered at some time,
- maybe some one has the answer. I would sure like to know !
