Hi Neil,
When you come to Holland - pop in!
I have a spare bearing for you against interesting price.
I did not have to use it after all.
The wobble was in a not properly adjusted (tensioned) main nut.
Use the proper tension (=High!) using a torque wrench).
Also mind the fixing of the springs and axle. there can be some play in
these mountings.
Cheers,
Hans
