As the title suggests I did this the other morning on my commute any chance of saving it or would ye bin it. Shame to waste as Ive only done around 2000km on it.

Of all the things to hit a piece of a car brake disk in the hard shoulder on the N7. I dread to think it came off a car that was driving along. :eek:

I'd bin it and be glad the carbon rim wasn't damaged.

took off a gp4000 with less than 50km for a much smaller hole than that.

Give it to Rouetube Dublin on FB and have him make a cycling wallet or phone holder out of it for you. He does that with used tubes and tyres.
