Front end is squeeking when I turn the bars but only when riding, so what needs lubing?

    I'd guess the headset bearings need servicing / replacement, paying particular attention to the lower one.

    I don't think it's the bearing, the bike is only 9 months old. When I am off the bike it doesn't creak, only when I am sat on it riding, which makes me think it is something that just needs a little lube

    Are we talking squeak or creak? Only when you turn the bars? What bike? Carbon / alloy / steel / Ti frame?

    Sorted it, was the front skewer, gave it a clean and no more squeek
