I've recently trashed it and I think the '28' stands for 28mm deep? Lots of 30mm deep rims, but I'd prefer to re use the spokes from this wheel as it's done very low miles before the eyelet split.
fcs28 has ~590mm ERD. I think this isn't a match for the Mavic rims. However if you had the old wheel built x3, you might be able to build it x2 with the same spokes and a larger ERD rim.
Out of interest where is the bad eyelet in your fcs28 rim (with respect to the valve hole/rim join)?
cheers
The bad eyelet was two from the join.
Ambrosio FCS28 are mid-profile rims, they have no eyelets
