I was on a fairly smooth road. It was chip seal, but no serious potholes. I've got four bikes with Velocity rims on them and this is the first issue like this I have had. Not a huge fan of Open Pros - had clicking eyelets that drove me nuts. Plus the offset rear rim on the Velocity just makes sense - I don't understand why everybody doesn't do that.

I do plan on calling Velocity tomorrow - not a ton of expectations, but I am willing to send what's left of the rim back to them if they are interested in failure analysis - as an engineer, I know that I would want to inspect any of my products that failed like this.
