[Closed] What's up with my rear wheel?

Noticed a few weeks ago the skewer was bent in my rear wheel, Mavic Crossmax ST. Riding yesterday I found when I braked I was getting a really inconsistent purchase when I braked, felt very unsettling sort of on off on off. Have had a look, seems like the wheel rim is a bit warped but not massively, spokes feel ok. Does it sound like the hub has gone?

Thanks

Did you change the disc as well? Might be a warped rotor,

i'm assuming you are using V-brakes.... try a new cable. or take it in to LBS tomorrow...
