"Somebody" at my house rode the bike with a flat tire and when I found it - it was flat and thus the rim was bent slightly. (Just at the flat portion against the ground) So, when I went to pump it up with air it bulges out where it was flat. Do I need a whole new wheel? I've never seen this happen before. Nobody at my house will admit to doing this....

- That's what I was afraid of. Should I just take off the wheel and take to to a bike shop to show them what I want or are there some numbers on the wheel or tire that I can take. Now, the rim is only bent a small amount but when I try to fill it with air, it will hold for an hour or so if I'm not riding but pretty fast if I'm on the bike. I was hoping I could just bend it back or....I don't know. So, where are the numbers that I can write down so I don't have to take in the whole bike?
