Did you look on eBay? Are you building it up with an existing hub?
Looking for one carbon rim, 700, 18 holes
New on here, hello all! I need one rim for my 2015 Trek Emonda. What I have now are Bontragers, but the front rim is dust. I'm not having any luck finding carbon rims with only 18 holes. I need it in time for the Santa Cruz 70.3 Half Ironman on Sept 11, 2022. Thanks!

Yes, looked on ebay. Can't find anything with 18 holes other than from China and I'm told that's a bad idea to order from there, also I need it soon. Can't wait for months for shipping. Yes, building onto existing hub.Did you look on eBay? Are you building it up with an existing hub?
I'm just going to buy a new wheel, it'll have to be aluminum...carbon is totally cost-prohibitive. ThanksYes, looked on ebay.

No, not a great idea buying Chinese off-brand rims. Though they will probably last through the Santa Cruz, LOL!
Bicycle Wheel Warehouse has some very light alloy rims that don't break the bank. The Blackset and Pure race wheels are a great buy:

Have you contacted a Trek dealer about a crash replacement rim/rebuild of the wheel? Seems like the obvious first thing to try.
