26” wheels - rim brake?

Ok, I turn to the paceline brain trust. Who still makes decent quality 26” rim brake wheels? Use is for my commuter bike which sees some trail and gravel duty. So far, Velocity Dyad looks good, but what else is out there?

Thanks

Chris

Following this with interest as well.

I had some old ceramic rim brake crossmax wheels once upon a time. Those were cool.
