That's thirded, by the way; my 1988 T16S had vibration at 75mph+ when I first got it; it only went away completely when I'd replaced all four tyres and had everything rebalanced. Strange thing was, although the vibration felt like it was coming from the front, I replaced the front tyres first (and had the balancing on all four, and the tracking checked) and there wasn't much difference. Then I had the rear two replaced, and the problem just went away. Feels smooth as silk at 80 now, I don't often go much faster[1].
