Was finally enjoying having a silent running bike the other day... then near the end of the ride I approached a small sharp incline which I wanted to get up quickly. Pulling hard on the bars from side to side resulted in a knocking / creaking sound from the headset area. Does this possibly mean my headset is lacking pre-load?
edit: it's a 1 1/8" aheadset if that makes any difference..
