As the title suggests, do you think this is repairable? Just want to get a few opinions before I take it somewhere or spend £135 on a new one

I'd say that's fixable, I've seen worse repaired

I wouldn't want to use that as a wheel used daily even if it was fixed tbh. And I wouldn't think that can be anyway.

By the time the money has been spent on a repair/refurb id be inclined to go for the new rim tbh

No no no. I don't have silly amounts to spend on wheels
I'm still going to enquire because if it can be repaired I may as well do it and have it as a spare
