Hi -
Cycling home yesterday my Hob Front wheel started making a ticking sound, every time at same location of 2 spokes revolving around fork. I cycled back carefully, put bike in home and hear it go from a tick to a sound akin to nails over blackboard when I wheeled it to the shed.
Can be...bust axle (easy to find) or bearings...as there's probably a fair amount of people here with Charge bikes maybe one of you knows what bearings to get?
(will open up today or tomorrow hope it's not the hub)
BTW me aul dad has a look at the campag BB I posted about some time and yes fubar just dump and he does metalwork. The somewhat pitted titanium pedal axle was OK he said, just as long as I wasn't going to do serious mileage.
