Thanks to everyone that has replied. I think I will need an expert opinion on my rim but if I am right then I need to look at a new wheel. But there is about 4mm of side to side 'movement'. You might be wondering what I've done to this poor bike to get it into this state! The block and chain need to be replaced as well. One last request, I currently have Alex S500 rims with 14g Stainless spokes. I want to replace it with something similar if not better i.e. bomb proof! Could someone recommend one please.
Thanks
4mm of movement should be repairable. As long as the rim isn't dented or metal bent then a competent wheel builder should pull it back into shape in about 30 minutes.
