Bashed my rim hard on a recent ride, ive managed to bend the side wall back straight after taking the video but the wrinkles under the paint are making me abit nervous. It's currently holding air without sealant in it.
That’s flat spotted to hell, but if it still holds air and rolls straight then just keep it going until you give it another one or are feeling flush for buying a new rim

I’d ride it while I was looking for a replacement, but I dont hit jumps or shred hard
¯_(ツ)_/¯

Send it, just keep a closer eye on your air pressure and maybe add a couple psi from what you used before.

Mine used to look like that. Then I got a few more of those. I’d say to keep riding as long as the tire is holding air. After that, get a new rim with beefier tires and/or cushcore

Repairable, cover it with a cloth then bend back gently with mole grips

It’ll buff out.
