For why? I've toed the pads in, which has helped, but if I wang the anchors on then it nearly rips the bars from my hands.

Headset? More toeing inning?

Really? That simple? What will that do?

Are the pads glazed if in doubt clean them up with a bit of sandpaper

Are your rims clean I use a green scouring pad with soapy water

Hope this helps

Yep, that simple. Or fit a fork mounted cable hanger. That cured the brake judder on my CX, changing from the stem mounted hanger to the fork mounted one. It's something to do with a resonance effect of the brake cable.

Pads and rims are fine.

high stradle wire and a whole heap of toe-in and the best cures for judder, if your still getting it then make sure your rims are clean and maybe try for a holy blessing as its a guessing game after that.
