2001 gix 1k My rear rim has a slight dinger in it. I dont know if I hit a pot hole or what happened. My question is does anyone know where I can get this think straightend or do I have to buy another wheel. also the wheel is chromed. the dinger is leaking just enough that I need to fill up the tire just about every time I take it out. only a pound or two. thanks

i would send it to mc wheel. i dont know if your chrome will hold up on the wheel once they straighten it though. it may have to be replated.....you may try classic components. they have a repair facility and also chrome plate.....mc wheel normally is around $80-100 to straighten...

Thanks those guys seem to know what they are doing. When you sent them your wheel was it chromed? If so did the chrome or the paint get messed up after they fixed it?
