Are 12mm nipples ok for these Mavic rims or are 16mm
required?
Any recommendations for other sub-£30 700c touring rims with
sockets between walls at spoke holes*?
* This resists spoke pull-through - see picture at: url:http://www.mavic.com/servlet/srt/mavic/asph-

Don't know. But I do have A719s on my tourer. Is there
anything I can usefully measure without too much (any!)
dismantling that might help you find out?

Thanks Tony but don't worry. The more I think about it, the
more it seems likely that (normal) 12mm nipples would do.
Longer nipps are more usually required for v-section rims. I
don't think any easily-taken measurements would help.
