If your rim is not round I think your building in problems. I had a dodgy VO rim and it was a pain to get built but seemed solid once done. It got pranged and went wildly out of true and repairing was impossible - I think because spoke tension was not perfect initially. Other (rounder) rims have had similar repairs easily.

Thanks tester. I guess I'm perplexed as the wheel hasn't really seen alot of use.
I do recall my spoke tension wasn't very even (per side), primarily because the Open Pro just was all over the place after initial tensioning and I guess I had to vary it somuch to get it to true.
Might persuade the rider to switch to Sputnik or archetype or something solid like that.
