If you read my post above (the first response), you'll see that I was
complaining about a ticking (can also say creaking) that comes only when
the rear wheel is spinning freely (when pedalling, there's no sound).
This couldn't be the sign that a spoke is going, could it? Firstly, it
started making this noise from the first week (it's gone about 1200 km
so far). Secondly, the noise is not coming when pedalling.
Do you think it's a spoke problem or something is wrong with the free
hub?
Cheers.




The wheel started ticking about 500km ago - after the broken spoke was
repaired and the rest of the wheel trued it no longer makes the noise. I
got the sound only when putting power into the wheel ie standing going
up hills - spinning freely - no noticable noise thus I think it's a
spoke problem.
