Hello everyone. I have recently found my way back to cycling after many years of running as my main means of getting in shape. Per the typical sob story, I have developed knee troubles so I need something low impact for a few months.
I purchased a used '10 TREK 2.3. I love everything about it... except I'm noticing a clicking noise from the front end that I have never noticed before. The bike is low miles and 100% stock. I am right around 200# so I'm not featherweight (I've slacked off on stayng in shape unfortuantely), but I'm kind of getting nervous that I'm too much for the bike. Also this is my first bike with a carbon fork.
I can't say 100% if this is true, but it seems that if I put more weight on my hands, I can make the clicking noise about 70% of the time which seems to come from the fork/front hub area. I can only get it to click when I'm moving. It won't do it when I'm stationary making pin pointing the location difficult.
I'm looking for some assistance before I take it to my LSB for help. Is this normal? Should I worry? There is no obvious damage and I believe the PO took great care of the bike before me.
Thanks in advance for you help!
