Hi all, I just bought a RadRunner 2 and can’t seem to get the front wheel to not wobble. As you can see in the video, the brake rotor is oscillating from side to side between the calipers.
I’ve tried deflating the tire and reinflating it while keeping the bead aligned. Also reinstalled the wheel multiple times. I adjusted the calipers too so that they’re parallel to the rotor. Any ideas what the issue might be?

If the wheel isn’t true (rim) the tire will always wobble. Compared to some of the Rad Power bikes we’ve seen through the shop that looks to be in decent condition.
The rotor just needs to be trued up – bent very slightly back to straight. Easy to over bend it trying to roll so this. And careful not to contaminate the rotor while doing this process.
