Hi guys,
First post, but have been lurking on the site for a few weeks now.
Just started commuting to work, around a 30 mile round trip, but today as I was cycling into work (sun shining, birds singing), my inner tube exploded, taking out the side of my rim.
Tyre was inflated to 120psi, so not quite sure what happened to cause this damage...
Question is, do I just need a new rim, or should I buy a new wheel?
My bike is a Langster single speed, the damaged rim is my front wheel, mavic cxp 10, 622x13, quick release.
Any advise gratefully received, as I am a total newbie in regards to cycling.
Cheers!
Daniel.
