I've dug out an old set of these wheels from the attic, they're from 2011 but rims still have loads of life still on them.

They were rebuilt by Mavic around 5 years ago and sat about for about 14 months due to my hip replacement in 2013.

Front wheel is fine but the rear rim is cracked at the spoke hole. I've asked about and apparently the rims for these wheels are no longer made.

So the question I'm asking is if there is an alternative rim I can buy from the Mavic range that could use to rebuild the rear wheel?

Apologies if this is in the wrong place.

    THose rims are FORE drilled, so you need a FORE drilled rim. I am optimistic a Ksyrium Elite rim should be a straight swap without too much trouble, but best to ask a MAvic dealer, I suggest you contact "Behind the Bikeshed"
