Wow. That really sucks. How did the rim fail? Were you on pavement? How bad is your bike?

Was it a mag rim with rim caliper brakes on it, or was it a stock spoked bicycle rim with a front caliper brake on it, or was the problem a front fender breaking off and falling into the rim and spokes causing the failure ???

There are 2 threads on the same thing. 🤷‍♂️ In the other thread he shows a pic of a 14 gauge spoke wheel with a front tire blow out

Yep Wrench...It looks like a blow out to me as well.
