Apologies, but what do you mean (I still live in the world of the gooseneck). Do you mean the handlebars ability to freely swivel L/R?
Ah, "gooseneck" -- don't hear that word anymore. One of my non-cycling mates calls them "goosebenders".

Yeah, the head-set -- it's probably more accurate to say: "the fork's ability to swivel."
If the head-set is too loose, you'll get that shuddering when braking. It takes a bit of practise to get
the head-set adjustment right, especially if you have little experience with the new "a-head" setups.
