(that i can think of) 1) New cable = slightly stretchy - give it a few rides, and it'll be solid2) Your pads settup.... do they both hit the rim at the exact same time? does all of the pad touch the rim at the same time? you need a yes to both of those Qs to get it solid! 3) flexy frame? possibilty...andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bionic Balls Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 there'll always be flex dude...if your lever can do it..put it on the lowest leverage (for flexilessness).personally..i've always found vees spongy, nowt you can do....cnc'd pads?adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
