My old crests are corroding around the valve hole and not sealing well, so it's time to replace them.

Any recommendations for good value 23-25mm internal, 32 hole rims? Light-ish if possible?

WTB ST i-25 if you can find them. Planet X/On-One were knocking them out for £6 a pop a few months ago.
I've been abusing a set for nearly a year now and they've been solid as a rock.

Mavic XM624 or 824? I built up the XM624's and they've been solid - nice and stiff. 24mm internal is enough for me.

The XM624s are cheap at Chainreaction at the moment too, @shortbread_fanylion - think I won't do better for £31

There'll be a fair bit heavier than Crests but yeah, very good for the price.

Got the XM624s, nicely finished, super easy to build up. Very happy with them!

What wheel size? I have some 26" crest rims for sale light use, if that's what you need
