New Rims

I currently have a powertap and my rim could do with replacing, it's getting on a bit old now and it's had a hard winter and it does flex a fair but so I fancy an upgrade.

Obviously it's main use is for training rides but I would like something I could race with as well. So I was thinking along the lines of a 30mm alu rim. Although my powertap is 32 spoke so I think this could limit me somewhat.

It's currently a bontrager rim and I was going to get in contact with wheelsmith and get a price for a rebuild with an IRD aero rim.

Has anyone got any other suggestions?

    You won't find a better all round rim than the Cadence Aero IMO (or Halo Mercury - same rim I think but cheaper). I race, commute and train on mine (PowerTap as well).
    More problems but still living....
