I hear pinging in my front wheel. I checked all my spokes and they're tight. If my memory serves me, I think a bearing is thinking about locking up soon? One bearing with a pit in it or something. What do you think?:confused:

replace the bearing in your hub, and see if that kills the pain, but maybe if you throw a lil axel greese in there it might help.

Check all things on the outside of the wheel before digging inside the hub. Do you have disc brakes? I was out for a ride once and I heard a pinging noise. I thought my spokes were loose or something... ended up being a loose brake rotor. Moral of the story... outside before inside.
