hey all...i have a 2012 trek xcal, with a rock shox reba fork. i've got a DT swiss C1800 wheel / hub with a wtb 2.3 vigilante tire on it.
i've started getting a good bit of front tire "flex" if i stand up on the pedals and really push hard side to side (going up a super steep climb for example)
is this just because i have too much powah! or is this something mechanical afoot?
my old wheel was bontrager mustang that also had flex.
when i got the new wheel put on at halters (thanks J!) there was no flex for the first 100 miles or so...but it has recently crept back in.
i tried adjusting my fork settings, both pressure and damping but nothing seems to work.
any tips / suggestions?
thanks in advance!
