You aren't going to ride it! Skip if you want to 9 minutes in this where its wobble is shown

I'm surprised we haven't had any angry wheel builders* on here complaining about those radial spokes and quoting Jobst Brandt.

* An oxymoron. Wheel builders are always angry.

To be an oxymoron it would have to contradictory terms combined. Now if you’d said always calm…

The wobble or part of it looks to arise from of the forks being angled by 1 stud wide plates being only attached to a single stud and the surrounding plates all being curved.

Nothing yet on Rebrickable as a solution. Angles are normally formed by hinge plates but using those here would have two hinges on the outside of the fork
