I have bent the rim on my Planet X (non carbon) wheel, it has a bend in the rim - although the wheel runs true I get constant punctures from it.....did it last thursday, had 4 punctures since!

They aren't terrifically expensive wheels, so my thoughts:

1) Try and bend it myself
2) Take it to LBS
3) Buy a new rim

Thoughts?
