Rim came in lastnight. 20 days later. But looks really good
New bearings and inner spacer as well
guess I’ll have to use the bearing spacers from the other rim to get my run off right. Company said everything should switch from factory to that rim. (DNA) rim. 60 spoke 3.5

Check the grease. Last time I bought a room from internet it was brand new but the bearings were not greased nearly enough.

these came dry, ( timken bearing ) with new seals ... im going to pack them myself and use the bearing spacers from the old rim
got in touch with dna and they said everything factory will fit ,bearing spacers,axle spacers and rotor

did a dry fit to make sure after work , everything work as intended , i didnt pack or install the bearings yet .just did a dry fit to make sure everything mocked up
fit like a glove ,also got fender risers for the time being till i get a fender i like

Thats a nice looking rim.I like the fact the spokes are sealed and it uses a Timken bearing.

im pretty happy with the rim, i know some say dna isnt a high quality rim
this seems pretty well put together .will see how she holds up down the line
my bike is pretty much a weekend rider,maybe ride to work on nice days so.. debating if i should run a tube or just keep it tubeless i like tubless so if i get something
in there i can plug it to get me home , tube doesnt have that option

My vote is always run a rim that you can run tubeless for exactly the reason you mentioned.
