It was of interest to me... Thanks for the "heads-up".  I've bought it and will now have matching rims again.  I started out with Grizzlies front and rear but the rear gave up after 11,500 miles and I replaced it with the heavier Rigida Andra. I've been expecting the front to give up, now at almost 21,000 miles it's still going strong but it's days are surely numbered and this was areal "find".
