Hi all
Has anyone found this happening after riding in the rain?
Went to clean the bike off after a rather soggy 2 hr 30 minute ride, when i noticed an odd noise from the rear wheel as i am trying to adjust the brake balance..
They are shimano 500 rimms, when i noticed water dripping out of the spoke holes quite bizarre never had this happen before.

No, never, and I've had some rides on my Trek involving flooded B roads with the water level higher than my rims.And now you know, and knowing is half the battle

yes, had it happen before, mainly after prolonged riding in flooded sections, just park your bike with the valves at the bottom of the wheel andit'll all drain out no probs.0

Just what you need after almost 2 hours of constant climbs is water in your tyre lolWe are an online travel agency.

I would imagine its just getting into the well under the rim strip.....not what you want either way mind you!
