Look mum no hands.. Is that any good? Or others?
Cyclelab. Yours is the bent RS80, right? Is the rim particularly out of true when rotated? Does it have a flat spot? It might be that you'd have to do wild things to the tension in the spokes to get it near-true again which would make for an unreliable wheel. As replacement rims are pricey it might well be beyond economic repair. But yeah get someone to look at it again if its not obvious.

Hi
Just been in the other thread and was directed here. Had an accident and 1 or maybe 2 of my front wheel spoke is untrue, took it to bike shop near the incident and they said I need a new wheel.. Been advised by a member here to get a second opinion.. I live in N1 (old street) and wondered if there are any good bike repair shops? I thought of Look mum no hands.. Is that any good? Or others? Thanks in advance.
