I recently bought a second hand Bianchi Reparto Corse Lite Alloy that was manufactured in 2000. There is no damage to the frame what so ever. I have Campagnolo Record groupset throughout, with a Bianchi headstem and ITM handle bars. The forks are Bianchi Engineered Carbon.
Question - The handling of the bike is quite good and decending it picks up speed quickly. The problem is that when you get to around 75-80kph you get really nasty speed wobbles and until you get down to about 60 they dont go away. Of course doing this speed down 6%+ gradients and getting speed wobbles tends to cause about 200L of adrenaline to be pumped around the body and makes you face look like . My question is, what causes the speed wobbles and apart from not going that fast is there anything I can do to prevent it.
I have raced competitavely for around 10years and never experienced this before, people I talk to say it is usually the headset being loose - but the headset is fine. Other have said that it is the forks?? Nobody seems to be able to pin point it. Any help would be appreciated.
I would like to change back into
