| The wheel had many dents in the edge of the rim. The pictures below show before & after of repairing the dents. |
 |
| After taking out the dent. Also cleaned the wheel so the rim, hub, cassette and spokes looks good... |
 |
| Installed an inner tube and reinstalled the tire. The completed and cleaned assembly was put back on the bike. |
 |
| Applied black leather cream. It put color back in the leather and evened out the appearance. The damaged leather can't be restored through this process but it makes it visually much less noticeable. |
 |
| The horn button assembly was reassembled and put back on the wheel. The 9 screws that hold the wheel to the hub were also cleaned and smoothed (the shiny parts). They could be painted black to blend in more but it actually looks OK as is. |
 |
| The leather on the backside of the wheel is in very good condition without any of the wear, cracking or loss that's evident on the front side. |
