Just installed a new Ultegra 9 speed cassette and put the wheel back on the bike. Now when I spin the wheel (no chain installed) I get quite a noticeable noise, almost a crackling noise, as the wheel rotates. It was fine before I put the new cassette on.......any ideas?

I greased the freehub lightly before installing the sprockets and also the lockring. No obviously loose spokes either.

Thanks

    Hmm, I took the cassette off and the wheel still makes a noise when spun on the quick release skewer.

    Lookl like something new to learn this weekend trying to service the hub :roll:
