hahaha - a swing and a miss from myself. bike looks burly as.


you changed tyres recently? i once swapped to a different make and it make my whole bike feel like a boat despite being the same size and (pretty much) of the same design. was really weird.".                                                          Had this issue with switching to a khe tire, from a odyssey tire, that I've been accustomed to all these years.   Should of left the odyssey tire in the truck , because it just felt like my bike was fighting me every step of the way, and could of prevented a loss of a nice weather riding day.

I had something similar twice.


Once was one side of the bars barely bent down, the other was that I had bent the fork sideways just a little.


It doesn't take much at all and those two aren't easy to spot immediately like a bent frame.

have you check that the cross bar of the handle bar is welded on straight? most riders use the`crossbar of the handlebars a a guide to 'true' their forks (parallel to each other). i had a bike which never felt right/ steer properly due to that issue.

yeah man it's my cincilla'.

Have you considered the fact that you throw your bike around pointlessly like an idiot.

yes but since i built this bike i stopped throwing it, and the problem was not that i bent the bike but that i could not find the problem, i mean 1 month ago for a week i had crazy rage and broked 3 bars but you could clearly see the problem not like in this case.


anyway thanks for the good advices now my bike is returned tight as f*ck i'm still not sure what was the problem but everything it's ok and i enjoied todays sesh.


these are the parts i changed:


-put a new flatware fork
-new headset
-new front wheel
-new back pegs (probably not correlated)


a good sesh after some sh*tty one is like fresh air.

yeah man that was the first thing that comed to my mind    they confuse your mind and don't let you think properly to find out the problem .

If I ever see a flat rider do a hop-to-wallride, my head would explode.

Glad ur problems fixed. Often a twisted headtube or inconsistant sweep (left to right) on bars throws things out.
