Need help identifying a 700c rim
Hello all!
Its been a while since I visited this site but I'm glad I remembered it now. I was sold a wheelset through Kijiji that supposedly had Mavic Open Pro rims. I checked today to see what serial number they had to try and sell them and I'm now sure they're not Open Pros. If anyone can suggest a place to search for them I would greatly appreciate it. There's a UPC code on the wheels and the numbers M12318 12681371 . Thanks in advance!

Its a Syncros hub with butted spokes. I've checked the Mavic, DT Swiss, Syncros and Ritchey sites with no luck. I tried to find out info about manufacturers for Ritchey and Scott but wasn't able to find anything. Now to see if I can send this...

Could it be a Sun ME14a or Ambrosio Excellight? I recall those looking very much like the Open Pro.

Could you post useful photos not just in the rim but the outside?

Not photos of the damn serial #...photos of the rim. Is it that hard to figure out what we need?
