Rubbing Noise Sound Cant find
 
I just bought a 2013 SL4 Tarmac Expert and I have a front sounding noise that sounds like a low pitch vibration but is not brakes, I loosened the brakes to be sure ....the noise is not continuous but begins around 3-4 miles and very hard to describe except as like a low pitch brake drag vibration or a dry bearing. I have changed out front wheel axial and wheel with no luck... :notamused: The noise continues even when you stop peddling so I would not think it is drive train related. I have noticed that noise seems less when going 19+ mph but that could be the wind noise canceling it. I will change out the back axle and wheel to see if the frame is transferring the noise to the front. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Before you make yourself totally crazy make sure the end of the front derailleur cable isn't rubbing the rear tire.
