So I dinged my rear wheel a few months ago. Tyre was still holding air, so I forgot about it.
Fast forward to last night and I was swapping my back tyre. Thought I'd renew the tubeless tape at the same time. On removing the tape I discovered that next the the ding the rim had split between four of the internal spoke holes.
It's a Pacenti TL28 26" rim.

Before this wheelset I'd used DT EX500 rims for years with no problems.

What's the go to Enduro/All Mountain/trail/messingaboutinthewoods rim these days?
