I have just got some avid juicy 5s with 180mm rotors and i have noticed my forks (marzzochi mx comps) have started to wobble at the stancheons. Is this because the leverage is longer? is there any way i can sort this out and are they safe to ride? also while i was practicing doing 360s i landed sideways and twisted my forks is it possible to straighten them out and is it safe to ride them still? because i really dont want to have to buy some newe forks. (the wobbling started before i crashed.)

    new forks. 360's on an XC fork is not a good idea.
