had some problem with my overdrive draup ( bought back from the one who’d gotten it from a lucky box). though in good condition. it’s got bad pulse vibe, body vibe, minor rim vibe. already tried to switch axle, bearing multiple times but they didnt work. hope i can get some of your precious recommendation here. thx
