Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

my son went down on spree a couple days ago, he's ok and spree seemed ok, but next evening, rear tire was flat, tried to pump it up with no success, noticed rim was bent in a couple of spots as well, assume i need a new rim and tire, my question...should i go all out and get one new if i can, or are enough used ones out there, i could only find 1 on e-bay and it seemed high, around $60 with shipping, also, been having rear brake issue, is that something i should tackle once the tire is off or is that just a cable thing?
