Hi All

Ok so I can not stand a rattle on my bike... I rode it in the local park with no helmet etc to hear properly...

If I ride on tar its fine not rattle, as soon as I go on grass gravel or over a speed bump a loud rattle...

I road in the park and pulled the front brake while in first gear doing about 15kmh (while applying throttle to maintain speed) and the rattle stopped. As soon as I let go of the brake back comes the rattle..

I felt around and nothing seems loose and the pads look good on both sides... So where is the rattle ?? Is this is standard problem that I will have to learn to live with ??
