[QUOTE="ThwartedEfforts, post: 1399461, member: 91431"] Confirmed this morning and yesterday morning on ride to work. Bike has covered fewer than 1,000 mi and has recently had its first service. There's what I can only describe as a metallic clatter from what appears to be the rear of the bike whenever you hit bumps in the road. If you hit a bump the clattering continues for a short while after, leading me to think something is loose. Thing is though, after a few miles the clattering stops and the bike becomes pretty much silent. I've noticed the clattering previously but, for whatever reason, dismissed it as a new owner fretting about anything and everything. But these last two days I've ridden the slower, initial section of my commute with my Neotec cracked open and it's been very obvious. It doesn't sound right at all. Any clues? [/QUOTE]
