After less than three months and around 2000km I noticed a split in the rear rim on my Whyte Gisburn. On closer inspection I found six spokes had started to pull out of the rim and had split the rim either side of each spoke. These were all on the drive side.
I've been running mainly on road tyres pumped to 50psi and the bike has only had a few fire road miles, most of the distance had been on road.
Has anyone else had similar issues with these WTB rims?

I had the same on my I19 rear rim on my 2017 Jake the Snake. Was replaced under warranty by the shop very quickly a couple of weeks ago.
Bike has done 1700 miles since last October or November. Front wheel is fine.
