Hi folks,

I'm looking for a shop in Ontario that can straighten/repair bent spoked motorcycle wheels. Both my front and rear wheels got bent (steel rims, wire-spoked).I've been searching through forums and saw several recommendations for Straightening King in London, ON, but unfortunately the phone number I found isn't answering.

Does anyone have сurrent contact info for Straightening King?
Or recommendations for another shop in Ontario that specializes in spoked motorcycle wheel repair/straightening?
I'm in Toronto and happy to drop off or ship if needed.
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much in advance,
Eugene

Define bent. Are the rims damaged as with visible distortions or just wobblling?
If they are physically bent and the spokes are good buy new rims only.
Available on Ebay in steel or alloy. Google the specs on your bike for size.
If the wheels are wobbling because spokes are loose or broken just replace the bent spokes and true the wheel.

Can't you see his picture? Major pothole or curb. Rim inverted at impact location. Aluminum rim would be garbage, steel may be salvageable with some effort.
