Anyone know of anywhere for the above in the UK?
My 90Kgs lead to cracks around the rim eyelets in a 32 hole hole Alesa rim I have been using for the last 1000 miles or so.
I picked up a nice 40 hole Campag S/R rear hub with Fiamme rim at the weekend, perfectly straight and usable with a clean up but I don't want to go back to tubs so am looking for a clincher.
http://withingtoncycles.co.uk/product.p ... de_id=1937 has something but it seems to be minimum 28mm
http://www.velocityusa.com/default.asp?contentID=584 looks good but I am not sure about shipping rims from the US
Any suggestions?

Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom0

Thanks
The Mavic site says these are for 28mm+ tyres, I was hoping to using 23s or 25s
I see CampyOldy has some Nisi Contenders, anyone know what these are (maybe need washers for the nipples if no eyelets?)0 -

Thanks Pete
Nice link, brings back a few memories0 -
Let me know what you find. I'm after something similar (25-28mm tyre fitting)Recipe: shave legs sparingly, rub in embrocation and drizzle with freshly squeezed baby oil.0

I ordered a Nisi Contender from Campy Oldstuff but this is 622/19 (I think) so probably 25mm max0
