No "lightweight" carbon rims k thx.
I've got some 32 hole Alex rims on my cross bike that are a little shallower than the V's. There was also a deeper section model available, but I thought it was a little excessive looking. I peeled the ugly a$$ed stickers off them before I built my wheels, and I don't remember the model, but they were relatively cheap. $35 ea IIRC. Got em at Urbane.
They are not light rims, but they are really strong. I have been beating on them in the DVP mtb trails regularly for over a year with no truing required. (except once.....the front when I got doored by an SUV-minor touchup......@#$%#$* SUV drivers).
