Not sure if it's the forks bottoming out or loose head bearings.

It only does it on hard braking, hard enough to almost do a stoppie.

Been reading on it, pretty sure it's the forks bottoming out.

I'm gonna get the wheel off the ground and check for play anyway, but pretty sure it's fine. [knock on wood]

I haven't set up the suspension yet. Been too lazy.

I need to bump up the preload.
