My reward for not checking the rim indicator on a CR18 was a massive CLONK followed by a nice thumb sized dent after hitting a sharp manhole cover edge.
Could've been worse I suppose...but keeping an eye on the back now. My front Gazelle wheel isn't too fresh either, I rarely break on it (fixeh hey) but perhaps time to ask for a new rim for Christmas ;)
