Cracked rim
Pulled off the front wheel to install a new tire... Yikes! Could have been a disaster.
OEM DID DirtStar. Not bent, tight spokes. Anyone else have this happen?

Wow, good catch. It doesn't look like it's at the weld, must have been a flaw in the hoop.
Easy enough to get it welded, if you don't want it I'll take it off your hands.

Correct, crack was not at the weld.
Last 10 minutes of my last ride was revved out in 6th at 77mph. Hate to think about would could have happened. Happy to send it to you for the shipping. It's sitting by the trash can.

Good thing you discovered it during inspection and not on the road. That might have been bad.
