If this is a new'ish bike, is this issue also new ?
Shouldn't the bike shop be involved in this discussion ?

Going to get hold of them but was hoping for a quick fix as I am in Italy with the bike so couldn’t just take it back. Sometimes the wealth of knowledge on these sites is better than asking a single mechanic at a bike shop.

What brakes and rotors are on the bike ?

I had brake judder on my old mtb, and that ended up being the (cup and cone) bearings in the rear hub (QR skewer).
Quite a different scenario to what you have now.

I have a new ish Titan Valarian with Reynolds AR58 wheels. After a few rides I started to notice brake judder. I have slackened the discs, clocked and retorqued them but still have the problem. If I apply brakes and move the wheel there is a little bit of movement but can’t work out where it is coming from. Any one had a similar issue?

 

Hi, we've worked through the thread, and you've received some good advice so far on what the potential issue could be.

We couldn't pick up any mention of your LBS being involved. The best would be to do so as they will have the experience and knowledge to know where to dig. It may just be a small adjustment, or in the rare case that something is wrong they could handle the warranty with us or the part's supplier and get you back our riding in no time.

Thanks very much for the advice. I just hadn’t contacted them as it was the week end. Will be sure to get in touch but me and the bike are currently in Italy which makes it a bit tricky.

I think they are Shimano CL800 with Reynolds hubs and rival callipers. I get the judder in both wheels.
