Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with trying to claim for a damaged wheel?
Basically I was out on my road bike today and hit a pot hole which cracked the rim (32 spoke Mavic open pro) which is 4 rides old. The wheel obviously cannot be riden any more.
Worth a call to the local council or have others got nowhere?
Thanks
take pic and send it to the council. i did when i wrote off a disc wheel in a timetrial
I got compensation for a dunted Mavic Open Pro Ceramic last winter. It was only a few rides old also. Take photos, gather as much evidence as you can, ring your local council to report the pothole and ask for a claim form to be sent out.
Thanks for the advice, I will get sort the pictures out ASAP and get the process started.
Thanks again, H
Basically the Tories removed the requirement to inspect roads so If you see a pothole report it as they don't have to pay out (well actually the Council Taxpayers would have to) if it hasn't been logged.
