I just know that i had a flat spot on what was otherwise a nice and not-much-used wheel, and i took it to at least 5 bike shops, all of whom said it was unfixable. It was only a couple mm, but enough to mess up braking.
The good thing is that incident induced me to learn how to build my own wheels.
