Found a couple of vids I took of a wheel I repaired recently, interesting to see how true I got it, I de-tensioned it and bent it back straight-ish thenย  re-tensioned it, my guess is most would have re-rimmed it.ย  It's now a bit out of dish tho to keep the NDS tension high enough.

First link explains the comedy accident that caused it, before and after vids follow

That's a good result mate.

I'm guessing you didn't bother to try straightening the rotor though! ๐Ÿ˜€
