Just ride it. When held in your hand you can feel the vibration or notchiness
but riding it, you'll forget it's there. I have a couple of the SON hubs and a
SRAM I-light. The SONs are noticeably smoother than the SRAM, in my hand. On
the road, I don't feel or see a difference.

it from Peter White.  Got a wheel built around it, but never got a chance to
hook the lights up, mainly because I was "doored" back in July, and only
started riding again six weeks ago.

> Anyway, hooked up the wheel, no lights attached, and noticed that it

occassionally makes a "puckety-pucety-puckety" sound as it turns around. I
can feel something vibrating in my hand as well. However, when I start to
ride the bike, it goes away. I don't feel any undue resisistance when
rolling either.

> I hooked up the lights and they do seem to work if I spin the wheel in my

hand. Front light is Schmidt Edelux. Rear light is a Busch & Muller seculite
plus.

> Is this normal, or do I have a big problem here? I ask as I am set to take

my bike to my LBS and have the front light mounted to my bag rack, my rear
light mounted to the fender and have the lines run.
