I am now standing waiting for an ubahn because the ticking sound of my front wheel was the spokes slowly loosening leaving me now with an unstable wheel and me wanting to save my teeth on the way home.
I tried the same when my wheel was hanging, no ticking. I believe it's because the spokes are under much more tension when ridden hence the ticks only occuring then.
