Bent Wheel Update

Post by Seth »

I wanted to give an update to a post I made a couple of weeks ago.
Got a number of helpful suggestions from members of this forum, but decided that I'd seek some professional support. I contacted Woody's Wheel Works in Denver. After sending a number of pictures of the wheel, they said they would be able to fix my wheel without damaging the finish (77RS pinstriped wheel). I shipped the wheel to them on a Monday from NJ. They got the wheel on Thursday. I quickly got an estimate of $60 for the repair. There was the bent flange, and flat spots on both left and right side of the wheel. $18 return shipping charge. Got the wheel back today and it looks beautiful. Cannot see where it was damaged.

Bottom line. If anyone has a problem with a damage wheel, I would highly recommend Woody's.

Always good to know who can be trusted to do good work.

Congratulations on saving your wheel and finish.

+1 on Woody's. Great quality work can be expected from these guys.
Some of the above is fact, some is fiction, some is my personal imagination and some is just simple truth. [me]
