the play in a 9mm QR or some light weight forks flexing under your incredibly immense weight
Yup that's what it is for me.
Cheers for the link mechV, I think if my informant is correct, they are from the avid factory and they are seconds... Could be as little as paint defects, but considering the number of complaints in this thread about them sometimes being shit...
Still going to get a pair though.

Shinging noise can come about when there is play in the wheel bearings too, check your cup and cones if you've got them, it's more likely that than the play in a 9mm QR or some light weight forks flexing under your incredibly immense power.
Double check the alignment of the caliber by putting a sheet of white paper below it (for ease of seeing ) and lining it up carefully by eye, not by pulling the brakes and tightening the bolts, that's internet guff and works about as well as my pants.
