Fork shudder.

Our Thorn Adventure has a rigid steel fork, the front brake is a v-brake with XT cartridge style pads, wheel has alloy rim. Using both brakes when doing low speed u-turns can make the fork shudder badly. The pads are only 1/4 worn perhaps - I'm wondering if I should try softer pads, or maybe harder ones.

Anyone else had this problem? Any ideas or feedback?

Thanks all.
