I have a pair of Kinesis Crosslight CX Disc v3 wheels that I put in for re-nippling (is that a word?). The ally ones were on their way out so brass was in.

The nice man at the bike shop found the rear rim cracked in a couple of places. So it's new rim time too. Bolleaux...

Any recommendations for a similar profile/colour 28 hole eyeletted rim with the same ERD to the OE one please? Ideally I'll get to reuse the spokes otherwise its gonna start getting expensive.

Second choice is a similar profile/colour 28 hole eyeletted rim c/w new spokes so same request for recommendations please.

Ta.

What is the ERD of the current one?

(Measured or stated on their website?)

Can you get a replacement from kinesis?

Helpfully (?) they don't have that info available and my Google skills have failed me. I can't measure the existing rim as its at the bike shop. The v3 is a couple of years old so they don't have spares stock readily available though are hunting round to see if they have an odd rim lying around. Waiting for their confirmation though I don't hold out much hope.

I might just go for a pair of Hunts. I have a pair and they're reet nice.
