Thought I'd show my ride on here. Its a MEGA AM COMP 27.5 2014 Its in Standard form apart from I have changed the Avid Brakes to a set of Formula T1S off my old bike and i've upped the rotor sizes to 203/180. Very strong brakes and im still getting used to them. Im also looking for a Reverb Stealth. Maybe treat myself to one for Xmas. Sorry for the poor pictures havent taken many yet. Its something im yet to do properly. Thanks for looking.

Only got one problem with it. The front wheel was buckled straight out of the box I need to get it booked into a bike shop. The shop i bought it off has offered me they would pay for it if i send them a copy of the invoice. Im loving it to ride though so smooth. Cheers guys

Take the tyre off the wheel and then reattach the wheel to the fork.. Give it a spin and see if it really is the wheel that's buckled.. Sometimes, a slightly wonky tyre can make it look like you have a buckled wheel

Lift wheel off ground. put a finger against the side of the rim and spin the wheel. if the rim leave or pushes your finger then its buckled.
If not then do as above with tyre.

Ah I seriously didnt think that it could of been the tyre. You normally just think of the rim straight away.
Ill check that actually. Cheers

Sometimes, a slightly wonky tyre can make it look like you have a buckled wheel I've had that before! Makes my heart sink and wallet tremble everytime.. then I find out the tyre is being a douche..

Seems to happen on most of my wheels
