[QUOTE="DBragg, post: 1421341, member: 64672"] I apologize for the vague nature of the original post. I could see exactly what I was talking about, in my mind's eye, hehe. I guess you guys are not mind readers. The front brake rotor is that part I am talking about. The movement, and my estimated measurement, were made with the front brake applied and the front wheel off the ground. However, the movement is noticeably felt with the bike on the ground while rocking the bike back and forth with the front brake applied. Yes the 220 has a floating front rotor. Its a two piece rotor, an inner and an outer piece, coupled by large round “rivets” or "bottons," as previously observed. Its rotational movement of the front wheel, as described in a previous post. However, the brake caliper and/or pads are NOT the culprit. I can see that the outer part of the rotor is not moving (its clamped by brake), whereas the inner part of the rotor is slightly rotating with the hub when applying rotational force to the front wheel. It does NOT appear to be play in the hub and or spokes. The rotation (play?) is observed at the “rivets” of the rotor. The amount of movement at the “rivets” is small but translates to approximately 1/4th of an inch of travel as measured at the tire. Clear as mud? Thanks for the replies thus far. This board rocks!!! heres a nana for you guys :yeehaw: [/QUOTE]
