Glad they survived, Johnny. Three years ago some clown from a bike shop in Florida sent me a pair of Super Champion clincher rims with zero protection, simply slid into a black plastic garbage bag and taped shut. I was dumbfounded. No damage either!
Yes, Virginia, there IS a rim fairy!

Last month I received a set of Alloy rims from the UK .Wrapped around the rims was bubble wrap, and a label attached. They where hanging on the light post in front of my door by our local USPS driver. NO BOX just the bubble wrap around the rims, PERFECT condition! AMAZING! Cheers John Crump OldwrappedinbubblesBrit.
