Garth, it's not beyond the pale of possibility either. I did have cracks on a 26" pair of Araya RM14's I think which was a bit disconcerting , but that's the only rim I can recall having an issue with.They were very light, probably too light for me and pounding around are city with its some of its 3rd world road surfaces. I'm a little over 5'6" and was well north of Leah's buck 35 when this happened
However, good on Velocity if they offer replacements; I think that's awesome. I have some Velocity 650B on my new bike; Aeroheats, I think they're called.
