During a recent training session at Kissena Park Velodrome on Sunday, I started experiencing some problems with my bike. Three things happened that have never occured before; going around corners my front wheel felt like it was cutting straight lines instead of hugging around the turns, second, I started hearing these metalic pinging noises coming from my front spokes and my frame started feeling wobbly.
I was wondering if something is wrong with my bike or is normal in the cold? I know that my bike is not a true track bike but I have trained here a bunch of times with no problems. My wheels and tires are less than a month old (SOMA somax wheels, Soma everwear tires) and my IRO Mark V frame is less than six months old.
I don't know what else to list. My tires were well inflated and everything was in working order. Does anyone have any ideas or sudgestions?
