  1. Screeching brakes during my chilly NE USA commute tonight and I got to
    thinking about the pulsing I feel in the handlebars as I pull the front
    brake lever to engage the notoriously loud Avid Shorty cantis.

    The hanger is near the top of the headset stack between a thin spacer and
    the lock nut. Anyway maybe the pulsing is a loose headset. If so, could that
    be causing an extraordinarily loud screeching?

    Don't have the time or inclination to mess with adjusting the headset
    unless the noise is signaling me to.

    Thanks.
