• have a recurring issue on work bikes where our rims are cracking- happens underneath rim tape - cracks follow the rim round connecting spoke / nipple holes. If that makes sense

    Rims are Ryde Andra 40, 36h.

    Anyone got any ideas on how to try and prevent this from happening, or suggestions for a rim that could replace them? Need to be heavy duty!!

  • cracks follow the rim round connecting spoke / nipple holes

    Lateral tensile stress in that region comes from tyre pressure. What tyre section and pressure are you using?

    Need to be heavy duty!

    There's not much that's heavier than Andra 40
