So my maxi has snowflakes and my magnum has Spokes.
I noticed that the maxi kinda starts rides rough at higher
speeds even on SUPER smooth ground. Kinda like there is a lump in the tire. I have inspected the wheels and tires very close and there appears to be nothing out of the ordinary. Tires are only a couple months old Repacked bearing and a new axle not too long ago. but the problem stays the same.
The Best description i have is seems like the wheels are not balanced, feels like driving a car that needs the wheels balanced.
I took it to the motorcycle shop but the wheels were just a bit too small to fit on there balance machine. The guy there told me how they used to balance wheels before the machines were around. I tired that several times and by that standard the wheels seems to be in balance.
Now my Magnum with the spokes and exact same tires rides like a dream. Even at 50+ its smooth as glass.
So I'm curious if anyone else has noticed a funny feel to the snowflakes?
are all snowflakes like this or did i just get a bummed set?
I'm working on a new build and really like the look of snowflakes but if that's just the way they are I'm gonna ditch them for the spokes. Gotta take Smooth over style?
any ideas?
