These days, often the rims with the best overall reputation do not have double eyelets. If you ask for rims with the best rep for long term use on touring, Velocity are going to get included, and they have singles. Tech has moved on. Here are a few that might work with double eyelets. I haven't heard of some of these, which raises the question of whether one goes for the eyelets, or the rep.
