Looking to buy a new wheel for my Polygon Siskiu T8 2023 with the 27.5" Maxxis Minion DHR 2 2.4 rear tire. I bent the wheel and I'm looking for a replacement. I believe it fits Shimano Boost Micro Spline wheels and I was hoping to get a replacement for around $200 AUD. I was also hoping to find a 32 hole wheel. I also run the Shimano SLX CS-M7100 | 10-51T | 12spd and was hoping to avoid a custom wheel. However, I'm not sure whether I should take a look into buying a new rim and possibly spokes for a bike shop to relace the wheel.
The stock entity wheel is out of stock and is likely to not be in stock for a long time.

I found the Mavic Deemax Park 27.5" which looks like a good replacement but I can't find much information and reviews about it.

If you can get it rebuilt locally that seems worth a shot. Might actually come in under 200, idk how many replacements will exist at that price point.
I had to replace my rear wheel due to stress cracks at the nipples last month. The cheapest was the buy a new rim and get it re-built. A good quality rim is still +$200 and $150-200 to build. You can buy cheaper rims but you might be doing a repair sooner.
In the end I went with new Reserve AL 30 rims as it made more sense in the long run. DT Swiss 350 hubs and lifetime warranty for $915 Canadian.
