    You can find Fulcrum rims on Ebay if you set the search area to “Europe” but they cost about £100, might be better with a new wheel and recoup the cost by selling spokes / hub individually as spares.

    So do you want to replace the rim, keeping the hub? or just get it repaired?

    If you take and post a photo of the damage, then I might be able to suggest the best course of action.

    The one thing I know, you can’t just buy Fulcrum rims on their own, your LBS may be able to contact Fulcrum and have it repaired, depending on the spoke pattern and number or spokes, you could just replace the rim and keep the hub.
