Ordered this bike online and the aluminum rims got bent a lot during shipment.
Is this repairable or should I return the bike?

Return the bike….
Return it, 100%.
That is not realistically repairable, it’s on the seller or shipper, don’t accept that.
I would even question the frame alignment.
Forget the rims, return the whole bike and head to your nearest bike shop. Who knows what else is wrong with that thing.
WTF, I have never seen any rim damage that bad so would immediately return and not buy from there again
That’s way too damaged. I would not want to ride that.
Why is your fork cardboard?
I have seen bikes that have been totaled by a car in better condition. Return it.
No chance
“If a bicycle is not being sold in a bicycle store, ask yourself why”. We know a thing or two about quality and servicability.
Just bend it back.
Awful shipment, should have shipped in a closed box front tire detached all zip tied up.
No, cannot be repaired. Ship it back
Did they try to post it through your letterbox?
Return to sender.
That can’t be SENT!!
Is keeping it even an actual thought ?!? Return it lol I have never seen something so neglected during shipping . Bikes usually come in boxes zip tied together with lots of bubble wrap or foam wrapped around fragile parts and the front rim and tire removed and strapped to the bike . ( in some smaller frames of road bikes I’ve seen the entire bike assembled except for the handle bars . )
nah son return that
Nah send that back. Courier service needs slapping
Those wheels are referred to as, “tacos.” I do not believe that they can be repaired.
