Thanks.
I hadn't even noticed those marks in the label area. I just checked - one mark was just a wrinkle in the label and the other is a slight scuff in the rim with the label wrinkled up around it.
So I think it will be OK.
I think using the Mavic with the full eyelets might be easier for me as a rookie? No chance of dropping a nipple into the rim?
