Hey guys, sorry to sound dumb but i'm after some info before I spend my hard earned cash.
Is the new 2009 black and yellow graphic mavic EX721 rim called a non disc rim?

The reason I ask is I am ordering a front one from Merlin Cycles to match the rear and it says on the order (mavic EX721 non disc black) is this exactly the same rim as the rear I already have? as I don't want to buy the wrong one!

I am assuming the non disc means it has a braking surface for V brakes but can also be used for disc brakes which hopefully is what i'm about to order.

Cheers and sorry for being thick

Stu, can be used for both I think that Steve Peat rode them until joining SC as he preferred the way they made tyres feel to shallower rims. The rim Mavic show as an EX721 is the same as they have been for 10 years albeit under differing numbers.
