Hi, ive posted before about this and have tried everything advised.
Headset off, clean and regrease, all bolts on rotors and calipers tight.
Been out tonight and it is just as bad.
Im taking it to arrow cycles in lincoln over the weekend to have a hope headset fitted anyhow and gonna ask them to investigate the juddering while theyre at it.
I know theres a lot of experience on here so i was wondering if anyone had any ideas.

Sounds like the hub or the headset, more likely the headset even if it doesn't look worn.
That's where my 10p is going - headset.

Thanks Sir, the hub is solid and pretty new.
The headset is getting changed this weekend anyhow so i hope this is the problem.
Cheers.

does it knock if you pull the front brake on and try and push it back and forwards? or just when your moving?

Ive had it into the lbs today and when the brake is applied hard and the bike is rocked theres a loud clicking coming from the brake area.
He said that sometimes with floating rotors the alloy bit comes away from the steel bit on the outside and obviously when braking your gonna get some juddring of some kind.
So hopefully that is problem solved.Hes gonna do further tests.
