In the last 500 miles I've noticed a front fork/front end issue I'd describe as wobble or looseness. I bought the bike used about 2k back and did a quick visual of the tread on the front tire and it looked good (cold and rainy day in Ohio is my excuse). With this new problem I got on my knees and looked more closely. I've attached pics. If I'm correct, this front tire is 12 years old (!). Date code 3507? See the pics...is that the date code? Could this old tire be causing the issue? I know tires age out at 7 years so shame on me BUT the question is could this be causing the problem? I've read a lot on here about front end upgrades...should I be looking at that too/instead?
I'll be taking the bike in anyway next week but the more I know ahead of that shop visit the better I can talk with them. Txs.
