Bent front rim
Anyone got a hyper front rim they don't need?
I hit a 6" round lump of concrete sitting in the middle of my lane doing about 90 kph...my rim now has a large bend in one side lip & no longer holds air in the tyre.
I was impressed how well the hyper maintained it's composure, she just shook her head a couple of times then carried on..until the tyre went flat that is!
If anyone has a rim they want to sell please PM me.

Give Dave Alderton a call on 02 96092889. He's at Smithfield and will fix that rim for $99. He's a genius.

Amazing the damage that can be fixed ,, You would think that there is no way possible for them to fix a rim that looks like scrap...

when I restored my 749D. I had "M/C Wheel" repair my rim. They had the $100.00 dollar rim special. They also fixed my rotor $50.00. Everything was brought to race spec.

Thanks for this contact number.
I'm in Newcastle so it's probably easier to get it to Dave Alderton in Smithfield.
