OK I've had the K5 13k for about a month and it's a great bike.
I've become used to the clutch rattle and will likely upgrade to an improved basket at the appropriate interval.
What is bugging me though, is a few strange metallic pings I get in the first 2 minutes of riding. They sound exactly like tiny bits of gravel hitting the front of the bike or maybe someting under stress letting go- but having ridden off from several different locations it definitely. isn't actually gravel...
It may seem worse turning left - though that might just be as I always seem to turn left first....
Any ideas?
