Re: GRRRRR pothole
Oh dear.
You can get them straightened, but I've got a wheel with a worse dent than that and you don't really notice it when riding.

Re: GRRRRR pothole
I see a large picture of a pothole, the location, a large picture of your wheel and a claim to the council.
That is not good!

Council would be my first stop, they have Cash reserve for such claims, but do you have to have had the work carried out and a receipt before a claim?

Re: GRRRRR pothole
There's four cars in Salford right now with smashed wheels, tyres and damaged suspension 'cos a manhole cover dropped into the hole on a dual carriageway!
They feel your pain! Pete
