Bent Rim!

[LazeR]

Well I was out riding with Narly R today, and somehow managed to bend my rim!:confused: I have hit things before like in 4th gear where it pitched me sideways and never even dented it, now i don't even know what i did and it bent! Is there anyway to fix it ? You can't see a dent or anything but i don't think it's supposed to wobble lol! The nut is tight, and the bearing is fine!

It's ok though i had a blast! Lots of fun, It was cool meeting Narly R, He's a cool guy! Can't wait to go riding with him again! Hopefully next time it won't be raining and we can get some pics!

Is it front or rear?

i bent my front on a 5th gear wheelie & all the weight came down on the front right wheel after the mishap....if you keep riding letting it wobble it will mess up the bearings & stuff

My rear right rim is bent, and has been for about 6 months and it still hold air. Its probably going to stay bent for a while also b/c I don't have enough $ for new rims. Just keep an eye on your bearings and you should be fine:)
