Hmmm... It occurs to me I have a little used wheelset that has Pacenti PL23 rims (v2, black label, 36h, 700c). They are currently on an older Raleigh I built up but they could be repurposed (though the rear at least would need to be rebuilt with a different hub). That said, I don't know if they are strong enough, or if the repurposing would or should happen. Research to do I think... The good news is they are the new-and-improved (but still discontinued) version, but are stronger than the v1 / red label versions. I know though that some of the newer rims are most likely stronger and more capable.
