Repairing 2006 Iron Horse Warrior Wheel
Introduzione
Vai al passo 1Straightening the rim requires a lot of time and patience in order to get it just right. This is a fix that can be done fairly easily, but if you don't feel comfortable straightening your own rim after reading through the guide, it is probably best to take it to a bike shop in order to prevent further damaging your rim.
