Loose headset? You can check by standing over your bike, feet on the floor, brakes on. Now try to move the the handlbars straight forward and backwards. If there is movement or clicking noises your headset might be loose. Be careful about adjusting/tighening with carbon. If you don't have a torque wrench take it to someone who does. (oh yeah - if the headset bearings are worn you can get noise, movement too - my husband found out he had worn headset bearings by riding no handed. The front end would start to shimmy whenever he let go - but it was an old style headset/quill stem so its easier to get wear)
