I tightened the skewers and the noise has not happened again.

DIY skills 1/10

Is it a Mavic wheel though? If so it’s almost definitely the Mavic scream of death.

Edit, just read that it is. Starts off occasional and ends up with your freewheel getting stuck and the chain going slack/fucking shit up. You should give it a good service as @farewell said.

yeah it is. It was serviced pretty recently, say 600 miles ago because it was seized.

As long as it gets me to work and back tomorrow I'll be happy

I think I'll start saving for some new wheels. I fancy a dynamo for my nighttkme seaside trips.
