Having hit a pothole at the side of a speed hump, resulting in a puncture and a bent wheel.
Just had the two front tyres replaced, can anyone recommend a good wheel straightener in the NW London area ?
Thanks.
 
I thought you could not repair a bent wheel?
 
If the wheel just isn't running true, it can be put right, but I was told that it needs heat treatment after doing this. Pristine Wheels in Milton Keynes did this to my 18" twin-spokes on my last 211. If it's the rim that's got bent or distorted, then it may be possible to put right, but it needs an expert's opinion.
 
The whole repair of bent wheels thing is a mine field but there are companies out there that will do it and do it well.

Remember you can claim from whomever is responsible for maintaining that road.
 
there's a company called rimtec
