Not too tough to figured out, either the wheel is still not true, or your rebalance wasn't done well. Find a shop that has a Hunter Road Force balancer and see if they can determine if the fixed wheel is the problem, or if you are out of balance.

I would. Are you sure the front passenger wheel isn't bent as well. Hard to hit a pothole with just one wheel.

Road force them all and I'm sure you will find the problem.
