    Couple of questions/help etc
    2020 T120- spoked chrome wheels.
    Background - Damaged to the very outer edge of flange of rim - cosmetic damage - rest of rim is true! (The important bits)
    1. Front wheel - welcome suggestions for repair/replacement of "rim"??
    I'm seeing $C1000+ for the rim/wheel!
    2. Should I even consider cast wheels as a replacement? (Sacrilege I know, but,...)
    Are cast wheels available for this bike?

    I'm in BC Canada.
    Thanks for any ideas!
    Steve T.

    Could you post a photo of the damaged rim, it might be easier to make suggestions then.

    Would it be possible for a wheel specialist to fit a replacement rim?

    I'm not sure whether cast wheels are available for the T120.

    Canyon wheels in CA offer cast wheels, but they ain't cheap. They also offer wire wheels I believe.
    Also, a supplier called kkeracing offers tubeless spoke wheels.
    Woodys wheels may be able to install new hoop on the hub. Google them.
    Check Craigslist and/or ebay for used.
    Good luck.

    The rim is not too difficult to replace, chrome as well as stainless options exist. You would need a truing stand or have a bike shop do it for you.
