Have you changed or replaced your front tire recently? I ask because I did and I'm embarrassed to say the bead didn't fully seat 360 degrees around the rim. 60lbs. of air pressure and POP the bead sealed. I had a very slight but annoying vibration in my front wheel until I fixed it. I'm going to do a-little hands-off riding tonight and see if I get any head shake.
