Is it kind of a breathie moan?  My Heron does that when the wind/speed's just 
right.  It's the wind blowing across the bottom of the steerer tube like a 
hillbilly playing the jug.

Subject: [RBW] Weird sound



Upon the last 10 miles of a 3 day excursion with quite a bit of
climbing, my bike emitted a loud sound that sounded like an elephant
mating call.  At first I thought it was the front wheel.  The bike
makes the sound when going 15 mph+ and when coasting or when pedaling
backwards at that speed.  Otherwise it sounds serendipitously.  I now
suspect that the cause is in the bottom bracket.  I'm using Sugino
cranks with a Tange bottom bracket which has around 5,000 miles on
it.  I have not performed service to it of any kind.   Any thoughts or
suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks, Chris.
