Hey guys I need to get a rim straightened. A '01 929 rear wheel. I whacked a curb at 20 or so. Cant believe it stayed up. Do you know of a place that does it?? I dont feel like bringing it somewhere that has to send it out. Let me know. Thanks

Did you do that down on LI that weekend?

Breakdown and get a new rim! I dinged my front rim on my 12 it sucked! Vibrations left and right and it wasnt that much of a ding. No one should ride on a dinged rim! Unless your gonna ride no faster than 50 mph... invest! At least maybe from a used bike instead of brand new!

yup

MC Wheels in NH straightens them...i think that is the name...no idea on the number though...

I heard of that place. Its mad far though. Unfortunately I'll have to go. Why the hell are all these places in NH??

Anyone riding tonight??

probably because no one rides bikes in Mass and our government sucks. Have you looked at Real Estate in our state lately? How a business survives in this state is beyond me.

They can straighten just about any rim, I sent them 2 tacos with a crack and they straightened it and welded it, just like new... Beats buying a new rim.

i need a front and a rear for a 929 done. there seems to be apattern here, are 929 wheels weak or something?
anyhow my bike will be down for a week or two to weld my frame.
what kind of turn around time does this place have, and can someone post a phone number?

note to self.....929 rims r no good i guess

keepitreel

had 2 rims done by MC...and these rims were bent bad.....they came back perfect.....then threw some chrome on them...like new now.

hessogood

what did the straightening cost you guys? Just a ballpark figure.

Its 1-800 MC WHEEL


I'll be going there Sat Afternoon. How much was it?

verticaljay

depends on how bad the rim is, the one I got welded and straightened cost me 120 one just straightened like 80

chis_c

yeah thats not bad. Angry Pete wanted 30 for the tire and 120 have the wheel done. The number is 1-888 MC Wheel.
