Our new 4D drilling process creates the optimal interface between spoke and rim. This exact angle reduces binding and the need for eyelets.
Pics also show no eyelets. Are you referring to a different rim?

That WTB rim certainly looks like competition for the Flow as a AM/light FR rim but is still too narrow for DH. When will someone make something similar with a 26mm internal width?
velocity p35? 545g, 35mm external, 27mm internal width.

the P35 has a rep for flat-spotting easily. and i'm pretty sure that like other velocity rims, it's pinned not welded. it's been out for what, 2+ years I think.
