Im not sure, but someone said in a previous thread that if you put a bit of griptape on your brake, bomb a hill and uuse your brake softly, it will get rid of it.

Not sure though.

I dunno whether that griptape thing works . Cause once I was playing scoot with a guy who like loves tyre taps, like absolutely loves them... So I put grip tape on the footside of my brake, and it heated up and just fell off... I dunno if it would be the same on the other side but yeah....

I think it would, but it would be on there for enough time to rip some of the wheel up and get rid of the flat spot. Well, in theory.

i do this..

first get some heavy grit sand paper
then take your wheel and try to round the flat spot out as much as you can
then dedicate a day to riding alot with that wheel and it should come out..
