I changed out my rear tire and since then I have a swooshing sound that is not the chain or tire rubbing on anything. I think my chain tightend up on the firstride post tire change. I reset the chain but then the sound started. The tire is tracking straight and wearing correct. What have I missed? Did I damage the front gear on the transmission?

Any assist would be appreciated!

Thanks!

 

Sounds like brake noise.

 

I can't type my respoince so your SOL till the damn forum is straight

 

try taking a tape measure and measuring from the center of the swing arm pivot bolt to the center of the axle. measure both sides and make sure the numbers are the same. could be slightly off making the noise. and make sure you have i believe an inch of play in the chain

 

Maybe your bairings are bad. Mine are, ordered a front and rear kit for 45$

 

Yeah try to repack your rear bearings. Ayres could be onto something they may need to be replaced.
