got a right annoying click/creak on the front end which is now getting really quite bad
frame is only 2 months old as is headset and headset is freshly greased, and bearings are fine and smooth
the forks are ~6 months old, and if i use the front brake to come to a stop on the road i get the most awful creak/click/cracking noise, the noise is also there when descending especially over anything rocky etc…..can also make the noise by pushing/riding into a curb outside the house, can sporadically produce said noise when pushing down on the bars, but only sporadically
have greased stem/bolts/faceplate and bars are carbon and seem fine, all hoses arent touching etc
even took the brake caliper off completely and noise still there ruling that out
basically leaves the forks and the front wheel (bearings seem fine but are almost 1 year old)
is there anything else ive missed/not tried before i go down the fork sending off route?!
