Flat rims

[tachuela]

i come up short on jumps sometimes.But man,
i dont know waths wrong with todays stock rims.
My last bike was a 03cr250 and i bent her front weel.
Now i got flat spots on the rear weel of my 03kx250.
Can i repair those (how). :bang:

huh... ive never had any problems bending rims

you can fix it depending on how bad it is... bend back the visable bends, then just true the rim... if the bend is to much i would aneal the aluminum before bending it, other rise you have a big risk of cracking it

My bet is your not keeping your spoke tension in check. The only rim bending I have is with hitting rocks. I jump long and hit hard plenty, especially when trying new jumps, so I doubt your doing it from short landings.

I agree; how often do you check your spoke tension.
