bending hub flanges back?

(1/2) > >>

meathead:
Right i have a slight problem!
I've kinda bent the flange on my Profile SS shell and was wondering is there a "safe" way to bend the flange back? also is there any gaurds that fully cover the flange on the ss? my BSD dont seem to be big enough

now to wait 30 years for a reply! cheers

Prodigal Son:
I'd be careful about bending profile flanges. I was wallriding a bench and my wheel fell into the seat slates. Instead of tweaking the rim or ripping spokes, my flange on my SS ripped off.

meathead:
fucking great   :'( looks like im gonna be looking for a new hub ha

Prodigal Son:
Just do it carefully. Maybe heat it up?

Mychaylo:
profile have a shit load of old spare stuff, ask if they have what you need
