Take a pic of the pothole if you plan to take legal action. I know of someone that was successful at this. Also, looks like your wheel suffered some serious damage there.

Word, it's a pretty fat hunk. I'll def get a snap of the hole, just by the sound/ force it made, i'm assuming it's pretty deep.

The reason why I say get a pic is because you want to have proof that there was a pothole before they cover it up. If you want more info on how to get the city to pay for it let me know. I'll talk to the guy who did it in my club. He's cool people so I'm sure it won't be a problem getting him to help you out.

I bent a wheel and filed a claim with the city of Garden Grove and months later they got the construction company responsible for the street to reimburse me. Go to city hall and they will direct you where to go and the forms to fill out. I didn't even provide pictures just the cross streets and replacement cost for the rim since the hub was tweaked.

I've seen many people win this kind of thing, but it can take patience... I say do it, they owe you for that crap
