[QUOTE="bramfrank, post: 477901, member: 2163"] Shimmy is at 30-50 because that is the resonant frequency of the front end. If your wheels are even slightly out-of-true or out of balance you get this, which is why new tires generally roll true - they are in balance when they leave the shop but may wear slightly unevenly - hence not running in-balance and perfectly true. Forks are fine if you don't have any looseness or leaking. [/QUOTE]
