I always advise the people to buy a decent quality rim for their first wheel build. There's enough to learn without having to compensate for a rim that's warped or not-quite round or a cheap rim that's so flexy that it won't tension evenly.

A new Rhyno Lite rim would be an outstanding choice for your first wheelbuild.
I never thought of that. I guess I should get a new one. Which rim is better the Rhyno lite or the Velocity Dyad?
