Went to leave for a trip and a couple hundred miles in, after a decent downhill section, I stopped to take a few pictures. I get back on the bike after several minutes, continue, get to the next corner and have next to no front brake. They pump up after a few tries, go away a little again, and then seem ok for the rest of the day (although I didn't work the brakes as hard after that - 2500ft in 5mi is fairly steep, 10% grade).
I later noticed a whining noise from the front, at certain speeds.
Am I likely experiencing a failing front wheel bearing, or just being paranoid? Prior to yesterday I had put several hundred miles on the Shinko 705s and wasn't noticing any noise.
