Hi
I am experiencing front brake judder from my carbon wheels. Using Wiggles own 'Lifleline carbon pads' and reynolds rims.
I have toed in the brake pads.
What could be causing this?
thanks

Loose headset ?0

Headset all good, doesn't happen with other wheelset/ brake pads combinations0

How much do you weigh?
If the carbon rim is bending under yours and the bikes weight is could be the cause. Not suggesting you are a fb but if you are tall and over 90kg some high end wheels are borderline for max weight.0 -
I'm only 62kg so that shouldn't be issue0

Dirty rims ?
You're not having much luck with this and the chain coming off too !0 -
rims look clean, could it be the pads?0
-
Give it all a good soapy wash ? If it WAS on the rims - it'd be on the pads now - and vice versa.0
-
Are the wheels completely true? without any lips. On some carbon wheels I have seen thin spots where the sidewall of the rim flexes.0

How certain are you about the headset being tight? It's always worth making triple sure...0
