Query - My front fork seems to be shaking when I get to a resonably high speed. This use not to happen. Anybody know what this is a sign of. Any input would be great. Thanks

Go to your LBS and get it checked out. Hopefully it's just a loose headset.

speaking as someone who a fork snap off 35 miles from home with ice on the roads, on my own, there is nothing to gain by doing anything else other than going to your LBS and having them look at it.

It's prob just the headset.

Does it happen when you're braking or just going fast? Did you adjust anything on the stem recently? Do you know what sort of headset it is or alternatively what bike is it and how old?

Just going fast - I had a flat the day after in the tyre. Therefore I think it was down to a slightly soft tyre - would this be correct do you think Thanks for input
