The wheel repair guys didn’t seem overly concerned about it, and it checked out his true still.

That said - if someone has a spare earlier narrow Cookie I’d like to buy it.

Thanks!

Not bad, a little deburring and sanding to smooth out the dings, and those will be ready for powder coat!

I'd want to know more about the mode of failure before running a wheel that had a crack like that. It might be fine for street use only.

Generally speaking, a cracked wheel is a paperweight.
