alloy wheel repair london
 
Does anyone know a place in London that could repair an 18 inch motorcycle rim? I've got a bend in it that needs to be repaired. It's not too serious, but i have to keep an inner tube in it to stop air leaking past the tubeless rim.

Can't help you with a direct suggestion but if you go over to UKGSer* ::::* For BMW GS Enthusiasts and contact Steptoe he is the resident BMW technical expert on that site and he's based in London. He maybe able to suggest something for you . Good luck.Tell him I said Hi ! :thumbup1:

I bent a K100 front wheel rim a couple of times in rain filled potholes. I believe straightening weakens it a little, hence the second time, but it got me going.

I tool it to be straightened at Hagon, the shock absorber people who at the time were in somewhere like Walthsamstow, north east London. They have since moved to as below, which is just east of London and still on the Underground. I don't know if they still do this, but should be worth a ring.
