Hi,
was prob defective. Could have been put together without grease.
I've seen both.
Either way, you need a new rear wheel, or a set. What is the LBS suggesting?
I used Mavic CXP33 rims for 4 years, I even toured with them. Built properly,
they are an ideal Clyde rim. If what your bike shop offers doesn't impress, look into this...
