Hello all...

Last night I went for a ride around the neighborhood and noticed something that made me a little nervous. I started out from a stop sign and heard a "whoosh whoosh whoosh" sound that seemed to speed up and slow down with my speed. In my ear, it sounds like a brake pad rubbing against the rotor.

Being a new bike, and new to the bike, is this tied to break in? Are the front brakes binding or rubbing a little, possibly? Is this something I need to even be concerned with?

Thanks

Sounds like a warped rotor. If your bike is still under warrnty, the dealer will replace it.
