hi,
whilst cycling about in the yard at work some clown decided it would be a great idea to kick my bike which lead to it skelping into a diggers set of tracks and now i have slight wobble on the front wheel and the crankset has a bent tooth with a slice of metal out of it. question time.
1. can the slight wobble on the front rim be fixed somehow?
2, what do i do with the crankset?

wheel need looking at by the bike shop. and the tooth might be normal as they are not all the same. if burred over a small file can be used to stop the tooth catching. if it is not causing any problems leave it.
as you can see here the uneven teeth of a NEW chain ring.
clicky for bigger."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
