[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1459743, member: 19880"] I had initially assumed he was referring to headshake. Oscillation, especially during deceleration. Not actually jumping, but instability. If the wheel is really "jumping" or bouncing up and down, I would be looking at a bad tire or one where the bead didn't seat correctly. Try breaking the bead on both sides, lubing the bead and resetting it. Consider increasing damping and decreasing rebound if everything else is OK. [/QUOTE]
