Showing her age, with wobbles
Long time no post etc.
My Tenere, the mighty Princess Sugar Sprinkles, is now at the heady age of 8 years old. Has flown by although my mileage has decreased and now the bike is just used for commuting. 55,000 miles now. Recently I have been experiencing a new and not entirely pleasant sensation; the bike feels like it is meandering when in a straight line. I've checked and replaced where necessary the following within the last 6 weeks; Head bearings Front wheel bearings Suspension linkage bearings Tyres I replaced all the rear wheel bearings ca. 9,000 miles ago but am wondering for peace of mind if I replace them all again. My other thought is that the front wheel is beginning to come loose around the spokes. There's a bit of flex in the fork when the bike is on full lock and I pull the wheel at the outer edge. Just wondering if any one else has found this? |
