Shaking fenders won't make your bike mishandle in corners, something else
is causing that. As others suggested, check tire pressure, wheel bearing
adjustment, fork bearing adjustment, or a wagging rear load (and even a
wagging rear load has to be pretty heavy to upset cornering).

You are right, there is no need to fine-tune friction shift cables, and
cable tension adjusters aren't necessary, though of course you want to pull
the cable modestly snug when you tighten the cinch bolt. In fact, it's your
