A customer dropped off the front wheel from a Bora One (high-end racing wheel).
One of the spokes was bent.
There was already a piece of tape marking it.
Apparently it hit a wheel stopper.
It's fixed.
The wheel orientation is reversed from the first photo, but oh well.
↑Replaced spoke
It's straightened out with just spoke nipple adjustment on the replacement spoke.
I only touched the nipples in two other spots.
In about 10 seconds total, the lateral wobble disappeared completely.
I didn't check a temporary center point, so I only applied the centering gauge for the first time at that point—and it was dead on.
This shows the original precision of the wheel was excellent.
