OK....I have a set of 2005 Mavic Cosmic Carbones. Recently while going downhill at about 40 mph, freewheeling, not pedaling, the hub (rear, I think) started making an awful and loud noise.....like the mating call of a whale! Seriously. Scared the hell out of me. I was expecting to go over my bars or something, but it didn't happen. I slowed to a stop, and could find nothing obvious wrong, and continued on without problem. When I got home I took apart both the front and rear hub, lubed/cleaned everything, but found nothing specific wroung that I could notice. When riding today (a couple of weeks later) I noticed it again, but to a lesser degree, kind of felt it rather than heard it, felt like drag....
Anyway, my buddy who rides Mavic Ksyrium Elites, had the same experience today while going downhill as I originally had. He too was able to continue on with his ride after stopping.
Any ideas whats going on?!?! Help!
