lol! Your question is kind-of hard to read without punctuation.

Anyway, I doubt if it's the wheel. What rotors?

Unless the bearings are worn then its more likely to be brake related. Juddering when brakin suggests a worn/warped disc. Check the disc is true first. If thats ok check for uneven wear. This isn't always easy to spot - you might to measure the thickness with a micrometer in several places to check for uneven wear. If it isn't the disc then the pads could be at fault. If neither then it could be the caliper needs a service. Failing all those then check for any lose caliper bolts (should be really obvious if that's the problem) or worn frame bearings/bushes if you're on a full sus.
