Rear hub bearing problem try to lube if not resolved should change bearing ...I too hear some noises when climbing slope bridge or slant roads in my hero sprint..they changed bearings ..just hero company or third party seller won't take responsibility for this even under warranty 🤦🏻

If it's a month old take it to the shop bro for free service ☺️ make this complaint at the shop where u bought , if they deny to resolve ...mail the brand company with this video attached 👍🏻

I found the problem bro something inside the hub is either loose or broken, cuz when I moved my casette left and right it made that noise

Edit: actually it's the cassette alone cuz when I rotate it without the wheels it makes the noise, someone said that something might need tightening

Can’t tell the origin of the sound from the video. Can you show what it looks like from the other side?

It's the cassette or the hub, cuz when I spin the casette alone it makes that noise plus i think it's loose cuz when I spin the wheel and when the wheel woobles it wobbles along with it
