I sure can't throw stones, I've done the same thing.

The only time I noticed anything wrong was during a hard turn. My bike made a horrible buzz! Of course, off the bike on on the stand, nothing wrong was evident.

What happened is the tire deformed just enough in a turn that the lugs hit my derailleur cable.

This is what everybody is missing. If you want a new frame, you now have an *easy* way to "justify" it!
