Brompton Double Wall Rims

Hi,

Looks like I'll need to replace my Brompton rear rim again soon. So I looked on the SJS site to order the bits.

However the site now describes them as "Brompton 16 x 1 3/8 (349) Angle Drilled Double Wall Rim - 28H" http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/brompton-...28h-prod31190/

I don't remember the old rims being double walled. Have they changed them? Seems to me that if they're now getting the rigidity out of tubular construction they will be thinner and wear out quicker?

Anyone rebuilt a Brompton wheel recently?
