yes, should be possible to rebuild the hubs to another rim. are they straightpull or traditional j-bend spokes and is it this freaky G3 lacing ? and replacement rims shouldn't be the same price as a whole wheelset but what do I know

replacement rims shouldn't be the same price as a whole wheelset
But they usually are with Shimano/Campag factory wheels, as is the case with many spare parts. Whole things get big discounts, parts don't.
Re-rimming factory wheels is nearly always more trouble than it's worth, and in the case of G3 Campags all the more so as you have to get custom drilled rims

I have a pair of old Campag Zondas that have dead rims. Can I reuse the hubs with another rim/spokes? The wheels have an unusual lacing pattern with the official rims.
Otherwise I expect replacement Zonda rims are nearly the same price as a whole new wheelset?
