spiderkzn Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Hi Hubber Just need your help/advice. Last weekend attempt ride over and rear wheel banged over on sidewalk and it went flat. And I'm prepare for exciting amashova and last night did discover there is two small hole. So decide to upside down my bike, take rear wheel out then replace new tube and pump and put back. So did the test it and I'm kinda worried that rear wheel is not very straight when test as it is wobble (watch youtube below) BUT did test ride and no problem. Actually I need your advice if you feel the same as leave it like this unless if wheel bend or cracked up? Dont want buy new rim which it cost more. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDJ2vwbGmhM&feature=youtu.be
Tumbleweed Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Need to see more than that. Could be the rim or the tyre. Hard to tell from your vid.
Helpmytrap Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 It should be able to be trued by your LBS and as long as there are no dents in the rim itself, there should be no need to replace it. But Tumbles might be onto something. Also, lube that chain of yours. spiderkzn 1
Guest Latent Blue Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Could also be a spoke... one can miss those

Guest DieBees Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Respect for doing the Amashova on that bike! No gears it seems. As youve heard, oil that chain brother.
Andro Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Keep your cam steady..... then take a side view clip while spinning the wheel where we canobserv the rim... Other wise take it to a bike shop for quote.Guess it would set you back between R40 to R80(with Stans topup) Ps...Squirt for the chain and while you at it,grease the Rear Derailure Bearings. Good Luck...
spiderkzn Posted October 10, 2013 Author Posted October 10, 2013 Thank Guys! Look like I'm broke this moment as long as it can be ridable! Sooooo looking forward to amashova! Oh yes I have lube for chain. Will sort it out tonight. About your suggestion for oil this chain. Do you know which type of oil I should use on chain?
