    Hey folks,

    I have a set of 60mm deep rim wheels (planet x - clinchers), that are standing to make a slight vibrating/rattling noise which is worse when out of the saddle any giving it a bit of side to side action.

    I havent really noticed it on the back, just the front wheel. spokes are all tight.
    any other suggestions as to what it could be ? if so, how does one fix it :-)

    Thanks

    I dont think so no. its always fairly wedged when i try to open it again. having said that, it does get used a fair bit. I'm not sure if it can be tight but some how still rattle/vibrate ??

    Swap out the wheel and make certain that it is not some other part of the bike. Possibly also the valve rattling.
