Bike Rear Wheel
Is my wheel mountain bike rear salvageable?
My rear wheel has a potato chip aspect to it because I landed sideways on the same. The wheel spins even when in the dropout, but is very unstable, so it is shaped like a potato chip. I have little money too now to buy a new disc is a bit out of the question. Should I start loosening the tension out of the whole wheel? Any advice on how to fix?
If the rim has been bent so that it is visible not be possible to true it the only way to know is to take someone who has experience in wheel alignment. If conference is a good quality, may be worth replacing the rim, but most often it is cheaper to buy a new wheel. If you want to try the correction of the wheel, you need a spoke wrench and a good amount of patience. Alignment is made by loosening the spokes on one side while tightening the spokes going to the opposite side operations center an equal amount ever, turning a spoke nipple more than one quarter turn at a time. Loosen all the spokes make things worse
