How about modern rims with cracked spoke holes, has anyone tried drilling a new hole next to the cracked one?
I have a couple of Mavice CXP-22 32h rears with 105 hubs, good spokes. Both of them came to me after some misadventure involving lack of dork disk resulted in a bent DS spoke and cracked spoke hole.
I had wondered about drilling the inside end of the eyelet off, making a new hole and using just the upper part of the eyelet. They don't use a full eyelet on the cheap OEM versions of the wheel anyway. The position wouldn't be ideal but I thought it might be OK for a light rider.
