The new style of Open Pros are prone to cracks at the eyelets. Seems like Mavic has a new mode of operation, integrated obsolescence. I have had 2 newer style OPs crack on me, while I have older models of the Open 4 CD and SUP rims that have seemed to last for 4x-5x as long as there newer counterparts.. When I had new wheels built I went with DT Swiss instead of Mavic because of all the issues with quality.
