    Wheel repairs & wreckers in South Island?

    A friend has asked me if I know anyone who can repair wheels - a mate of his has split and bent his front wheel on his SV1000.

    I know there is a place in Cambridge that repairs rims, but does anyone know of somewhere closer to Christchurch, or alternatively, a wrecker that might be able to help ?

    I would have searched the forum myself but am on limited time (morning tea at work)

    Cheers

    He repaired one for me a while back and I know a couple of bike shops send their stuff to him

    Get him to price it first though

    Royce Clive is the go, see Kevin - Thorpe engineering are good, but a little hard on the wallet.

    Are Royce Clive doing bike wheels? I asked Kevin and he said they weren't which is why I gave the wheel to Thorpes, it was 2-3 years ago though
