Not sure If appropriate to post here, But I have a brand new set of 650B 32 hole 38mm DH rims for sale. Will do them for $530 as apposed to $590 from LB

My buddy sent his straight pull 240s over. Was about 15 for shipping and 15 for wheel building or something like that, was real cheap

Thanks for the reply and heads up. Epoxy from now on, see if I can replace it once the polish wears off. I've contacted LB to see what they say regarding damage and or replacement if necessary
