xtz wheel are made of cheese !!
 
ALRIGHT ..................i do ride it very hard !!! BUT ....come on !!!!

My mate was following me afte ri'd nipped up the spokes and noticed the wheel had a little gimp !!
I decided to take it to the shop and get it done proper .....�50 later and a full change of barings (by me) this is what i'm looking at !!!

Now is this a buckled wheel or have the shop not done it right ?

That looks like a lateral woof in the rim which should've been pulled straight with a wheel trueing job imo. There are wheel builders and wheel builders...
