An Update on the wheel shimmy problem I have suffering from at 60 mph and above. I have finally got this irritation sorted with some help from Chris Jarvis. Basically the centre of the wheel must match the diameter of the hub. In my case the centre of the Minilite measured 66.6mm, the hub diameter measured 57.6.
In order to make up the difference SPIGOT RINGS are available in a variety of sizes in tough plastic or aluminium. BINGO the problem has now been resolved no more wheel shimmy at 60 plus mph.
If any one else is suffering from a similar problem it would well worth checking that the centre of the wheel matches the diameter of the hub.
