Reasonably priced new v-brake XC rims

Re:

26" rims for V brakes or cantis have totally died in recent years. Mavic was the go-to but I'm sure it's only a matter of time until they bail completely. XC717s are hard to find on eBay too.

Re:

It's only rim brake stuff that's ended, still good levels of disc only stuff

i may have some mavics 26" available off this ?

Mavic Crossride UB for rim brakes are still available new.

Anyone got any suggestions for a 26", 36h, welded and double eyeletted rim? Weight not important, strength is (it's for a heavily loaded touring bike)

Either new, or maybe something like a set of older mavic D521 or similar?

I've a new pair of x517's 36h in silver. The stickers need gluing back down along the edges but theres no damage to them or the rims.
Also new pair of Velocity Aeroheat AT in blue 32h. These rims are painted not ano, company did this as new. Basic rim i believe non eyeletted.

If its a rim I can help there too Ive a single 32h and 36h d521. I used some fine steel wool to clean the braking surface of a few storage marks when i bought them, but its left one looking like its been used a tiny bit. Both are new to my knowledge.
I have a nice rear :shock: Goldtech 'Sam oil filled' i think(wee oil/grease nipple in hub center, I know nowt about Goldtech) laced up to a mavic 121. Xlite nippless. 6 bolt. Its pretty heavy duty. Very nice condition. machined braking surface

Also an ex717 on Hope sport hub 6 bolt, black ano untouched ano braking Surface(machined)very nice condition.

I need two... will be rebuilding my dave yates soon, have 36h DX hubs, but need rims. Don't want to go less than 36h for loaded touring.

Righto. Likely always here so if you find another 36 drop me a line.
