Wheel damage

[MikeS]

Went down a pot hole in wales last week, checking the tyres today noticed a deformation on the front wheel. The tyres holding pressure but the damage is obvious.
Collective thought's, is this repairable ? Or new wheel?

Looks repairable to me, had similar myself.

Easy repair is that

Easy to do on BM’s soft wheels

I had mine fixed here -

I had something similar a couple of years ago Motoliner sorted it for a reasonable cost

Booked in with motoliner next week. Ride in and out service.
Very helpful on the phone. Quoted 200ish plus the vat.

Bad luck Mike.

Presume you've already looked on Ebay for a suitable replacement in good condition? They come up occasionally.

Did have a quick look but times not on my side. Booked a bike trip to the Dolomites in mid June and just before that a week with the grandkids. So wanted a quick/easy fix.

Had the same and took mine to motoliner same as Steve did, great service but they are busy.

Went down to Motoliner today and got the front wheel sorted, 6 hour round trip and 4 hours in the workshop (ride in/out). 200 quid plus the VAT.

Thanks to Steve398, Panman40 and exportman for the recommendation.

That’s good you have it fixed, I really don’t go out much recently due to other issues but I tend to ride with the main focus on potholes which is ridiculous.
