Lots of reports of blown off tyres here in germany too. A bike magazin (Tour) has recently recommended to use these rims only tubeless.

If you have more info than just vague rumor... what is the source, and what might the terms of recall be? The rims are still for sale...

I'm riding it,not for long though, maybe 500k so far, the new model of the 340 with tubeless and mig/mag hubset, 24/28 and I love it. Holds air very good, smooth and good climber/descant so far so good! I hope with all what is written my experience with them will remain the same. Ill keep updating when ill get more mileage.
