Right.
So after a thorough inspection it turned out that both front and rear rims on my YaXiang LD 450 are bent. I mean, seriously bent.
The shop that sold the bike to me could offer me no assistance. The owner just said he didn't know what to do. If that's the asftersales service in China (country of origin), can you imagine what it'll be for YaXiang/Asiawing abroad?
So I'm a bit stuck here. I have the following choices:
1. Go 90% Chinese bike riders' way and ride it without repairs until it's dead.
2. Buy a set of THE SAME QUALITY YaXiang rims (fully assembled with hubs and spokes) from taobao and get those bent in another half a year.
3. Go out of my way and buy a set of quality supermoto wheels for Honda CRF (say, Marchesini), that'll set me back 2K USD at least and is nearly impossible in China.
