Hi.

Just installed replacement forks - Magura Durin md100r, new headset and running with 180mm avid rotors. If i lock out the front brake there is a little play/wobble - (no associated knocking sound)... but i cant determine where from.
Any suggestions on what i should be looking at...?

thanks Nels.

    Pads moving in the calliper is the usual one (and not a thing to worry about.

    Otherwise, axle in dropouts
    Stanchions in bushes
    steerer in headset

    Put a finger across a joint and do the rocking and you'll feel which joint it is.
