Bent wheel...

[mole]

...guessing this is beyond repair... or is it?

Had it sitting in the garage for a couple of years now, wondered if anybody knows if this kind of thing can be repaired by Lepsons or the like?

That is easy repair, around France we have 2 our 3 shops doing exclusively theses sort of repairs

By memory simple repair is around 80€ (scratch) and a full repairs (including sandblast, welding and paint/coating) is around 120->150€ per rim

you should find same sort of shops around UK I suppose like him: http://www.alloywheelrepairs.com/index.htm

I've also seen that sort of damage repaired but I wouldn't and you may find Lepsons wouldn't either.

It will never run true, it will always give a slight vibration. I would put it on ebay, some pleb will buy it:thumbs:
