Just found a split in the rear rim.
So looking for a new rear wheel.
27.5" 142mm hub spacing maxle 135x12.
Any suggestions?
Ride a lot of rocky stuff so need it to withstand the abuse.

If you can re-rim the old wheel, DT Swiss EX511 or EX471 are very tough rims.

Thanks. It would be cheaper but it's a dark art and need to find someone who would do it.
My local shop Merlin have stopped doing wheel building
