Huh. The spoke eyelet appears detached from the rim bed. Is there a blue rim strip partially popped up? Can you pull the rim strip off and photograph the rim edge-on? There looks to be quite a groove worn into the sidewall at about the midpoint. And that rim seems to have taken some pothole hits- your tire pressure may be too low for the tire width and load. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
