    Aye. Make sure they're laced up properly. Try not to land like a lead weight too.

    DONT SHOUT.

    take them to a wheel bilder and get them finished.

    if you can, take em back to the place you bought them, two weeks is no time for any wheel to last, let alone single tracks. i have sets fitted to my reign and to the p7 which i reckon i could knock nails in with!!

    Its not uncommon for wheels to buckle if there brand new and machine built. By the sounds of it its only out by a small tweak aswell. Take the bike back to where you got it and i'm sure they will be happy to true them up for free.
  • cheers for that i know someone who will do it for nowt
