I am showing a shocking willingness to change and feel all stressed out about changing my rims. All the wheels I have build for about 15 years have been OPs (except for one venture into Exal and that caused tyre fitting issues) and consider them to be high quality and reasonably durable. The only problem for me will be the spoke length I know the OPs well and know how to build them. Oh dear the worrying starts now. Well at least the one I flat spotted on the MP1000 I have a replacement for. I hit a mighty hole very hard. It is only the second OP that I have damaged in this way.

Panic over. The old OP will still be produced.

And I've got a couple of pairs NOS which I'd be happy to move on at a very reasonable price ...
