I guess we could do a poll. How many here have had a road bike rim

Failed during use, never.Â* I've thrown out a few rims that were well
worn, both MTB with canti brakes and road bike with regular caliper brakes.


Same here. I've worn out rims but I would replace them before they
failed. I don't think I've heard of anyone having that sort of failure
on the road.
