Hi All,

I was looking at a friend's Eldo yesterday trying to determine the cause
of
 a wobble that has recently appeared on her bike. It occures at higher
speeds. Not too much other info than that. What She can say is that it
only
 appeared recently and she didn't notice a problem during her 2000 miles
trip
 this past summer.

When I was probing around on the bike everything appeared to be ok (tire
pressure, spokes, rear drive, ujoint etc...) but I did notice that the
swing
 arm was a bit loose where it ties into the frame (at the pivot bearing).
I
 
 am going to have a look at the bearings and spacers to see if they are
cracked, repack the bearings and set the swing arm right. I am wondering
if
 you think that the loose swing arm could have caused the wobble?

Regards...Ian
