Posted here, so hoping for good advice!
A mate is building a bike for his girlfriend for touring (for info it will be a flat barred folder) and he's after suggestions for a rim, it will be 700C and disc braked (so he'd like unmachined rims as they look nicer when not used for braking) he's looking at the Mavic range but any other suggestions?

To summarise, 700c, will use road tyres, need to be 32h to suite the disc hubs.
