I am seeking advise from anyone with knowledge on wheel repairs. I have one older Trigo Halibrand wheel that has a impact dent on the back side edge of the rim. It is about 2 inches long and is pushed in a 1/16". The inner beading area of the rim is affected so the tire will not sit flush along the rim. Can the rim be heated and the bend be taken out? I got the rim and would like to repair it since it is one the older wheels cast with the original Trigo molds which is different from what is being cast today. Thanks for all your help. Regards AJ
