yup bought one of them, but one too small so need to up grade to a larger one.
Thought you bought yours for your training wheels.....

- January 11, 2014, 22:43:26 PMYour right there CDRatMan, that's why after I saw that tire I invested in a rollstand that I could drive on and spin the wheel.http://www.amazon.com/Hardline-Products-RS-00002-Rollastand-Cruisers/dp/B000GTVWFW
Buy it through VDR's Amazon link:

- January 11, 2014, 19:44:06 PMCome to think of it, when I bought my 1500 I would get a really bad wobble @ around 45 mph. It was the rear tire for sure, almost like driving on a flat but all over the place. The bike shop I went to have new tires put on couldn't believe I drove it in. Can't emphasize it enough to check your ride!

- January 09, 2014, 20:30:42 PMWhat causes the wobble? Is it axial runout, as opposed to radial runout?. . . . . . Or something else?

- January 09, 2014, 09:20:59 AMTire pressure, good, bearings feel good no rotor drag, head bearings feel ok, going to do some more digging this winter. Thinking it might be the rear tire separating.

- January 08, 2014, 20:43:19 PMI had the issue you mentioned, riding one-handed, it would wobble weird...but when it started doing a very dangerous wobble on the interstate at high speeds...that's when i decided no more...I had the bearings changed---problem solved...

- December 22, 2013, 22:04:11 PMThis is a recurring problem on many bikes... a lot of things can cause it... from poorly worn tires (including rear tires) to worn out bearings.

That is interesting.
49, you ever figure out what was causing yours??
