no the wheel has a weld it's still there it's been pulled off the metal. This is why I wanted to get the word out so bad how many more are out there and how many
styles of this wheel are there. I tell you one thing if this was a front rim I would be dead... I sent p.m. photos they would not tell me how offten it happens I also found
some on e-bay.If you see these rims on some ones bike tell them get them checked
out I would just get them off my bike.

Consider documentation with National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
This can be done online.
An investigation might be conducted.
If it is a wheel problem the investigation may save a life.
A situation as posted in the pictures should be of importance to a manufacturer in my opinion regardless of age.
