pressure
Right checked the tyre pressure today and my front was 30 psi and the rear was 31 psi, it was a digital air compressor that you set the psi you want and it cuts off when it gets there.
I put the front up to 34 psi and left the rear alone just to see if it made a difference. It didnt, as I drove off the front wheel still felt glued to the road at 25mph and below, its getting anyoing and a little dangerous because all my steering movements are jerky at 25mph and below.
Any one have any ideas as Im a complete novice where bikes are concerned. If im pushing the bike its nice smooth steering, but riding I can feel the tyre gripping and as you increase the pressure on the bars to turn you have to put more and more on until the tyre suddenly releases grip and as im applying a lot more pressure than should be needed the front turns to much and then it gripps again and I then have to push harder in the other direction to compensate and I start my jerky 25mph and below wobble.
I think I should get someone who knows a bit about bikes to have a ride on it.
