Thin walls ?

Fitted one of these just a year ago and the wals have split already, the walls appear to be really thin and its expensive to build the wheel again. I have to buy another but the original one lasted 3 yesrd plus.

    Failed after two years

    When pumping tyres to the recommended 90 PSI the edges of the rim pushed outwards and the rim split at the join. (This after 2 years of use) Only happened on the old style rim after 7 years. Not any option that I can see but get a new one and keep tyre pressure lower.

      Nice rim

      Took a couple of goes to match the angled holes with the required lacing pattern. But once tightened up and trued it runs very well.
      If you are replacing an old single wall rim, don't forget the spokes are a slightly different length and you will need new rim-tape.

        Super rapid deliver from BB, as usual!
