    The front ain't fixable and the rear is marginal. I sure as hell wouldn't ride on those rims once they'd been "fixed".

    $3700 IS new wheel prices.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    I don't know how different bike rims are to car rims. But there is an outfit called Arrow wheels who does (makes) and repair lots of race / custom wheels for cars, they might be worth a try.

    Snuffles could buy another bike for that sort of money, ask Kickaha, he got a really good deal.

    Got some good news from defbringa/snuffles today:

    "Jim,

    Get bike back on Tuesday, $1850 to rplace both rims tyres and rebuild front shocks, not bad eh?"

    That's more like it. Sawyers sometimes do good stuff, eh?
