Done about 250 miles max but has a definite click from the front - soft though, as though there was a thin ziptie just hitting the fork. Several times per revolution, seems to be largely speed-related. Disappears if I use a different wheel.

Spoke tension seems fine and nothing is making contact with fork, brakes etc so I'm assuming it's the hub. Is this well-known "feature" that goes away as they bed in or do I need to service the hub ? - or is this a major fault and I'm going to die unless I send them back to Mr Wiggle immediately ?
