It is the wheel hub and its fittings that is the important part you want. Not worth re-chroming a rim. D.I.D are around £80 new. I have bought wheels from the states before and always have asked for it to be stripped and just the hub to be sent. One should turn up soon in this country. Have seen one on ebay at 185, if it has stainless spokes it is worth it because a new rim is £80, stainless spokes are £75, to build the wheel and true is £80. Does not seem a lot when you look at it that way.
