Front Wheel Bearing

Heard light squeeling from front wheel. Think it's the bearing. Has anybody else had this issue?

helmet or no helmet? The reason I ask is because when I'm troubleshooting, I've gotta pull my lid off to help hear the noise. Without lid, you may be able to narrow it down.

I had it and I think I solved it when I changed the front tyre and slapped on some more high temp grease around the front axle, spacers, rubber seals and bearing cases..

My brakes sometimes squeak but I see that as a sign that the pistons aren't sticking and the pads are still able to move freely where they should, normally caused by a bit of brake dust or the pad vibrating against the pistons..

My rear brakes squeal every once in awhile but never had the fronts make any noise.
