If these are the 35mm cannondale carbon wheels with "stans" tubeless tech sticker then you might be better served just biting the bullet and grabbing another rear wheel. The hubs on those were very cheap OEM made by Formula, and they were often built by machine and somewhat badly. If you want to save the rim, you'd be better served just getting a Bitex or other good quality/low cost hub and having it rebuilt.

Thanks that is what I needed to know. Yes they are exactly those wheels.
Never noticed a problem with the hubs but I just checked and the bearings feel rough. Not sure if they are replaceable but my wife weighs 120 lbs and did not ride the bike that many miles so they should not be worn out. I am tempted to just order a wheel from BTLOS. Her bike will be out of commission for awhile but we have a tandem we can ride. I am not a big fan Bitex, would rather go for WI if I was to do a rebuild. The internal nipples suck so I would rather not reuse the rim.
