hey, i just bought a torker dx and it arrived 3 days ago. second day i had it i was riding and noticed a pinging sound, once per revolution. i went back home and checked all the spokes cuz thats what it sounded like and sure enough, i found a loose spoke. i tightened that up, but the next day, the pinging sound was still there. i have ruled out that the spokes are loose and i dont think its the splines cuzit 4 days old. what could this be?? any help much appreciated!
ok thanks guys! i will tighten up everything and just not worry about it for a couple weeks. maybe ill try some wd-40 on the spokes like carey said. thanks for all your help!
The thing is, with the spokes that come with the DX, they are painted black, so wehere they rub together and flex, it will chip off paint and when it hits the little bump, it makes a sound.
Keep things tight, keep riding, break it in, its only been 4 days.
