Re assembled my bike, got upset about something and spent the day jumping and generally grinding.
I have developed a ping in my rear spokes. I have a spoke tool to be delivered in a day or so-not shure if its just a soft spoke.
rode around staring @ my rear tire to locate (probably looked quite funny) seems unfortunately @ the valve site or close.
One spoke SEEMs to have less pluck-not a wheel guy yet so these are lameman obsevations.
I zapped strapped the crossings to try and find the click and see if higher tension would work-no.
A good shot of air seemed to make it stop though? (I already run a well pumped tire). Had a small ride after, no noise...I think.
Swiss DT spoke, Mavic rim and Deore hub, probably due for a total tightening. And I was jumping (new for the bike)
Anyway ping or a click...Not the pad rubbing the rim.
No visible outer changes, have not removed tire and liner yet to inspect the inside-should I?
