This is a bummer!
I bought this 05 from a guy who hardly rode it, with 10k miles. It had a garage drop but other than than straight bike. On the test ride I though the rim was bent. From 15mph down, the wheel literally turns right at a certain point with each rotation. It's hard enough that you have to hold on fairly good as you come to a stop. I took the rim off, noticed it wasn't perfectly true and assumed it was a bent rim. Just put a brand new rim on, new bearings, but same rotors, brakes and tire, and I have the exact SAME problem.
Could this be a bent rotor? I sure wish I knew $400 ago. Thought I had this one.
Thanks, any info is appreciated.
