I've had shimmy on my Atlantis since day 1, which I described here a
year or so ago.  Nothing helped it, thicker headset grease,
fenders(less), front load/no front load, not even different bars, no
death grip..etc.  And it wasn't me.  My BIL experienced the same thing
enough to comment that he thought something was wrong with the bike.
20+ years of riding and never had it on another bike.  Finally I seem
to have found a cure, albeit unexpectedly.  After having had this bike
for 3 years and regular pain in between my shoulder blades during and
after long rides,  Grant himself recommended lowering, yes, lowering
the bars.  It worked, no pain since.  And no shimmy.  As a test I
raised the bars back higher, and there it was again.  I did one 20
mile loop and there was the pain again too.  Go figure.  The best
part, though, was Grant taking the time to offer an idea I never
thought of.  Enjoyed that 48 mile ride today,..

Cheers.
Bob
