Afternoon all,
On my last two rides on my specialized Rockhopper, I've felt a strange wobbly feeling from my back wheel when descending quickly. I don't feel it at any other time.
With the wheel on my bike and the bike upside down, when I spun the wheel, I can see a clear wobble. When I deflate the tyre and spin it again, no wobble.
What's happening? Is the tyre defective? Is it just not sitting properly? My plan is to inflate it slowly making sure it sits nicely but would be happy to hear other advice.
Cheers
Mike
