So I got my cycletruck put together last night and took it out for its first ride today. All good except I'm getting a shimmy when I take my hands off the bars. Anyone else got a cycletruck and that suffers this?
I had a bit of weight on the front of it, not sure if that's got anything to do with it. Meant to try it unloaded after I got home but forgot.
Headtube angle on my drawing is 72deg (will check what it actually came out to tomorrow) and fork is a bmx one with steerer extended so has about 30mm rake. That sound like a recipe for disaster to anyone?
