      off topic help on repairing dented 7075 extruded section

      Hi guy's, OK this one is a little strange to post on a forum like this but I have a feeling you'll have the answer

      I have an expensive wheel rim off my ..... bicycle !!!!!
      .... and it's got a very shallow dent in the side wall that I need to pull out... somehow?

      It's only shallow but makes a hell of a vibration when braking. See my attached mock model for an idea of the extrusion/dent involved. It's on the braking surface and the extrusion is about 1.5mm thick at this point.

      It's not quite as extreme as this but you get the idea...
