The rear offside hub on my Pearl sings to me, ar rather it goes 'Wheeeee' particularly on reducing speed.  I have fitted a new sealed bearing, noted that the inner hub (the felt seal) was loose on the outer bearing so applied the appropriate loctite, put it all back together all nice and tight, and........'Wheeeeee!'  All my wheels are slightly out of true but I don't get the noise on the nearside.  Any ideas anyone?
