    Not sure what caused it but it could've had dangerous consequences. I don't use any special cleaning chemicals & to clean the wheels etc I use WD40 on a rag but not excessively.

    I had one vanish on a ride last autumn, never found it again but it made things interesting. Not something you can fix at the side of the road either

    Could be a pot hole?
