I weigh 175.
I want to stay with 28mm tire width. Would prefer rims that are rated for 100psi or better.
The bike was about $1,250 new, so I am reluctant to spend more than a third of its cost, around $400, on a wheel or wheelset.
More info on what would fit my bike:
700c
Shimano 105 11 speed hub (5800).
6 bolt disc brake - not the more common center spline mount.
QR skewers.
Rear skewer:
5mm thickness.
170mm length to the washer. 180 total length. Rear drop out internal width (uncompressed by skewer) 141mm.
I'm including front measurements because if priced right, I'd buy front and rear set to keep the wheels matched.
Front skewer:
5mm thickness.
130mm length to the washer.
140mm total length.
Front fork drop out inside width 101mm (uncompressed).
Info from the sticker on cracked rim:
ETRTO size: 622-19c
Inner rim width: 19c
ETRTO recommended tire section width: 28 - 62mm.
