Recently it has been getting worse, to the point where I have to hold on to the grips firmly to keep it from jiggling, and the bike feels sqirmy going into tight corners. Does anyone know what causes this? I think that the jiggling is at the same frequency as the wheel revolution, but I'm not positive.
