front wheel shudder

Post by zackvis »

had my tires replaced .put my wheels back on and the dredded shudder while braking is there. I first thought the dealer bent my rotors on the tire machine .
When removing the front wheel I notice too that i did not line up with the axel on the right hand side with the fork .
removed my front wheel and sanded the rotors. I made sure the axel was level with the front fork when i replaced it this time round.
The shudder disappeared so either there was contanination on the rotors or the fact that the axel was not level with the fork caused the problem.just something too keep in mind if you get the same problem.
