I bought a bike today, and it came with a set of Motomags. The rear has a little bit of a tweak in it. Is there a safe way to try and take the tweak out without cracking the rim. I was thinking of heating it up with a torch and trying to straighten it with a vise. Before I try this, are there any other proven methods?

Mike,
Anytime you want to come over, just give me a shout. I'm going over to Yakima Indoor this weekend for the RFL and SCR. Anytime next week is cool. Cash is always good, but as you know, I do like to trade. I still have that goose you wanted. Let me know.

i know you can have alloy wheels on cars repaired so maybe motomags will respond to the same treatment....?
