I keep hearing this noise while coasting coming from the rear wheel. Could this be the bearings in the hub? Does anybody know what I can do?

Does anybody know what I can do?Depending on your hub and body, the sound might very well be the freewheel mechanism ticking over. It's sort of an one-way clutch that lets your sprockets engage/disengage when pedalling/coasting. Tell us more about how it sounds and we'll be able to tell.

I actually have this problem too...
It definitely sounds like it's comming from the front wheel.
Anyone wanna tell me how to lube my bearings?
