Subject: RE: Damaged carbon wheel... Is that a fairing on the wheel or is it structural? I have a hed jet that has damage very similar to yours, I have put a bit of packing tape on it and heated it with a blow dryer. Because it is just a fairing which does not provide structure to the wheel it's fine and you can't tell it's damaged unless you look really closely. I have ridden a handful of times on the trainer and twice on the road; so far so good, no problems and I have been inspecting it very closely after every ride. If the carbon is structural to the wheel, there is a guy somewhere in Minnesota that does repair work for HED...they gave me his contact info but I must have deleted it after my fix. I also spoke to a european import car garage that was willing to tackle the job as they do in-house carbon repair...maybe one exists around you? |
