I think it’ll buff out.

It’s a Stans Podium SRD, feather weight xc wheel. Super fun wheels except when they aren’t. ; )
Stan’s offers crash replacement warranty but I think I might get something different and burly.

Nope. It was off island stone. Weird crash sequence. My buddy said it was a sight to behold.

I recently built up a pair of 650b disc wheels, the front wheel was using a Stans Crest XTR rim...oh my word, I have never held anything so light in my hands before. Originally thinking of using it for "gravel", but changed my mind later to using it whenever I "transform" the gravel bike into a road bike strictly for paved application.

@sparky33 well, it was just the rim. I take neither you nor your bike were greatly hurt otherwise?

All good. Thanks.
Bike seems remarkably unscathed, as am I. I pitched over the bars and rolled. The bike went up and over and landed rear wheel first square on a rock.

A few weeks ago in NorCal

I took these shots of my buddy a few weeks ago when we were riding in the Morgan Territory Reserve in Northern CA. It was a fantastic road. Trust me, it's worth the click:

and

(posting these images here in a lower resolution wouldn't do them justice, hence the links)

It's a spirited ride and has me feeling like I've got an extra gear...

Wow, apparently today is memory lane day. My old stomping grounds, bet I wouldn't recognize it now! Lived in CdM, worked in Orange and road my bike (only had one then) a lot.

Love the bike too.
