Wanting to make sure my bike's ghost wobble was fixed 100% I installed both the top and bottom Visco bearings. I no longer experience the wobble at high speeds even with weight in the back carrier basket.

Installed the headset viscous top bearing into my Ariel Rider Kepler eBike. I can now ride hands free at 41 mph. I removed the old bearing with a socket extension and tapped the new one in with a rubber mallet. No other type of mallet worked. If I were to install another bearing I would cough up the $20 for a press-in tool. I only needed the top bearing, but if I was doing it again I would replace the bottom as well. These are just better bearings and the price isn't bad.
