Right, I just fitted my pikes onto my bike and they were feeling brilliant at first, until i gave the bike a little hop and landed again, when a loud rattling noise came from my front end. Anyone got any idea what this might be? I'ved checked all the external points that could rattle i.e maxle, stem, headset etc so pretty sure it's something internal

Yeah, sounds like some kind of rattle in the damping if that's possible?

Can you pick out which side it is coming from?

Hmm, haven't actually listened that carefully and i imagine it'll be quite hard, it's only when there's a hard impact or on really bump stuff, not when i'm just bouncing on them riding on the road

I've managed to track this down to the dualr air side (i think) but i still have no idea what it might be, any ideas much appreciated as I just want to get out and ride them!
