Here is a picture of the hub of my rear wheel. Looks like a mess of spider cracks. Is my wheel pooched?  | ||

That looks like you paint is cracking do to high heat. | ||

Looks like a bunch of brake dust and road grime from here | ||

I am just concerned because when I was knocking out one of the old bearings I didn't realise I was hitting the hub and not the bearing until I had hit it a few times. The bearing seat looked fine but I didn't notice this until I started putting the wheel on the bike. Just triggered a memory, I tried heating the hub before knocking out the bearing, that would probably explain the cracked paint.  | ||

Looks like the surface finish is checking. I would: check the torque on the pulley (or, rotor?) fasteners. sand a small area that displays the cracks, to see if the they go away. |
