I start to bounce at high cadence when I'm not properly "pedaling in a circle." I can get rid of it by focusing more on the scraping motion at the bottom of the stroke (like scraping mud off your shoe) and the opposite pushing motion at the top of the stroke. I find it difficult to do this on standard platform pedals though (feet slip off), so i'd suggest clipless pedals.
