The pick up sensor needs to be close and central to the pick up ring.

It's been fettled just a tad.

The gap between the sensor and the toothed ring needs to be at 1mm

I have a similar problem with my 'mini lobster set up, up 40mph it is fine but over that it will bounce around like a kangaroo on a pogo stick!!
