South West Refurb

Post by geek » Mon Dec 31, 2012 12:03 pm

Morning all,

Managed to kerb a rim yesterday. Can anyone recommend a quality refurb outfit in the south west? (Glos, Avon, Wilts or North Somerset pref).

Damage is very light, it's on the edge of the rim (not face) covering about a quarter of the diameter, SWMBO thinks I am mad to bother with a repair as she believes you cannot see it unless you get down onto the wheel (nurse).

I know it's there though and I hate kerbed rims.

Cheers

Steve.
