It sounds like the installation of the bearings is not good and needs to be redone. Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so I can hear the noise? That way I can tell for sure what's going on. You can upload it here with your response. Here is how the job is done correctly. Check out the images (below). Please let us know how it goes.
