Original Matrix Strada/Maillard Helicomatic wheel that came with my 84 Trek 460. Started finally loosing spokes the other day. I removed the hub and spokes to try and salvage the rim.
Looks like it's cracked at the seam both ways. It seems like building a new wheel with it might be unwise at this point. Just seeking confirmation so I can contently scrap it (being the bicycle parts hoarder that I am) if that's the case.
Makes me wonder if this rim would have just popped one day if I repaired the spokes and kept riding the rim without spotting this...
