Maybe i had a dodgy pair then... hated how my rode climbing out of the saddle. Then again I hate any flex and I've found most forks I've owned to be flexy, apart from my Ovals and the tapered forks on my old road bike.
It's almost definitely flex if your wheels that you are noticing.

Why do I not notice it with new forks and the same wheel then? It was scary how much the crown could flex when I pulled on the bars whilst stationary.
@Ordinata I'm not arguing that it's a significant factor in terms of power lost, just that it's really fucking annoying.
