Hippity hop is gone
«

Posted last Monday about a very noticeable front end "hop" between 35-40 mph that developed after installing a new Avon Cobra. I took the advice offered here and ordered Dyna Beads and installed them earlier today. Just got back from a short ride and the hop is completely gone! The Dyna Beads seem to work as advertised. It took me about 20 minutes total to install them through the valve stem.
Thanks to this board!

Thanks for letting us know what it was.
Seems as if the Dyna beads are going to be
the hot lick.
Just changed both tires and put them in
and they are like glass.

Thanks for the follow-up, FlaValk. I'm biased toward Dyna Beads since spring '07 really glad you didn't have to replace a tire.
