  1. After hitting enough rocks, my MTB rims have a few dings in them, i was wondering how to get them kinda straighter, even tho i don't have any issues with them sealing at the moment. So started googling, seems quite simple, going to try it since the tyres are off for maintenance, need to get the wheels ready for this weekend http://www.pinkbike.com/news/Tech-Tuesday-Fixing-Rim-Dents-2012.html http://www.bicycling.com/maintenance/repair-maintenance/bike-repair-dented-rim Then i came across this interesting book as well http://books.google.fr/books?id=KbtiuIhNTcAC&pg=PA65&lpg=PA65&dq=how+to+fix+a+dented+mountain+bike+rim&source=bl&ots=TpnwmWlk7e&sig=2rcsVDr6Na0gx1kGQkMuOk1is0U&hl=en&sa=X&ei=a5T8Ur3KIOSR7Aaj94GwBA&ved=0CDsQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=how%20to%20fix%20a%20dented%20mountain%20bike%20rim&f=false
  2. I need to replace a cracked 26 inch Fulcrum Red Metal 3 rim. It’s got 24 holes, 16 on the drive side and 8 on the non-drive side. Apparently the Fulcrum guys in SA don’t have any 26ers anymore. Any suggestions for where else I might be able to find a compatible rim? I’m not fussy about brands, but something of comparable quality would be nice. It would be a shame to have to get a whole new wheel and replace a decent hub.
  3. Howsit hubbers, My front and rear disks are rubbing in one spot per rotation. I have taken both rotars off and they are both unbent. I have also tried re-aligning the caliper multiple times but there is always rub in one spot. Any suggestions? I phoned one of my local bike shops thinking my rims could be the problem but they assured me the rims, even if untrue, won't affect the rotor running through the caliper. (is this true?) The brakes are: Tektro HDC300 hydraulic disc, 160mm rotors. I have tried searching the forums but cant find anything that helps me. If anyone knows how to fix this, or has any suggestions, please help!
