Squeaking/Creaking problem?

[Changfriedrice]

I own a diamondback response and as of late, I've noticed that whenever I turn the handlebars to the right, somewhere in the front area of the wheel squeaks. I'm planning on taking this bike to school with me for commuting in a bit over a week, so if anyone could help diagnose the problem so I could get rid of it would be great.

So when does the noise occur? Is it when you going a certain speed or does it happen when your stationary too? Does it happen when you turn the wheel past a certain angle? Is there anything that feels loose or wobbles?

You say it's only just started happening...did something occur just before the noise started appearing?

just work your way through all the things it could be by giving the bike a service there's loads of info/videos out there and fixing bikes is quite satisfying and normally relatively inexpensive. If you get stuck on a particular bit then there's loads on here will help or google Sheldon Brown at Retro Raleighs for no-nonsense info (not just on Raleighs, but he's American so some terms are different like 'tires' for instance)
