  • Hi all

    I brought my self two deep section carbon rims for cheap, with the catch being there is a crack i each one. I did know this and having a few contacts here and there i might find someone who would fix it, I haven't.

    DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO OR WHERE I CAN FIX MY WHEELS!!!

    Thanks

  • I hope they were very cheap!

    100% carbon, or an alloy rim with a carbon fairing?

  • £20 for 2 so not complaining!!

    It's 100% carbon and the the damage is on the braking surface.

  • Are they clinchers?

  • That was an expensive Thursday morning bin collection.
    I would've taken your money off you without involving your garbos.

  • Unless they are modern, high quality rims then I'd bin them.

    If they are, for example, dimpled Zipp 404's then maybe look at one of the carbon repair shops such as http://www.carbonology.com/

  • You can always turn them into coat hangers.

  • Or, Hula hoops?

    Or, you could use then to set up a dog agility course and enter crufts next year, win the fucker and buy some nice wheels.

    Or, Flaming hoops for midget motorbike stunt shows? You could tour the country, earn a few bob and buy some nice rims.

    Perhaps watch The Hudsucker Proxy for more ideas?

  • bit of electrical tape and they'll be good to go...

  • pictures so we can laugh please

  • And once more for the Queen's who prefer their glorious English whole..

    this link should show the wheels, I was told carbon is really strong so would be fine to use.

  • "403. That’s an error.
    We're sorry, but you do not have access to this page. That’s all we know."

  • i've got some invisible crabon repair tape, 20 quid a roll, you'll need a roll for each rim - they'll be right as rain afterwards

    used notes preferred..

    would it add weight or not?

    and how big is a roll, its only a centimetre or two.

  • If you decide to split the cracks from the rims then i'll dibs the cracks.

    only a centimetre or two, why that's more than i estimated, you'll need two rolls per crack

    weight's negligible and wouldn't show up on the scales anyway (tape's invisible remember)

    wise jambon, wise; those cracks go for top dollar on teh bay
