Horrible vibration and noise - HELP!

A couple of months ago i first noticed this annoying vibration and noise everytime i pushed down on my right foot on the drive side. Firstly i thought it was the BB so i got that replaced - didn't fix it. Then i realised i could lean the bike over the the left side while riding in a straight line and the noise would be constant, so i got Hargroves to take a look at my rear wheel bearings as it was a sealed unit, and they said the bearings need replacing, so thy did it for me. I picked the bike up and went for a short ride, and the noise is still there, but its not as regular. I don't want to take it back to Hargroves because they don't seem to be able to solve it. Its really frustrating because i didn't pay good money for a custom bike for it to go wrong! The wheels are: http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/sp/road-t ... odiwhfr220
And the drivetrain is full Shimano 105.
Anyone got any ideas?

Get it on the turbo and see if you can locate the noise - it's very common for it to be somewhere totally unexpected (headset is a common culprit). Also try switching skewers if you're sure it's from the rear wheel.0

Don't have a Turbo, and no spare skewers
