you need to ask the suppliers.
Generally, rims suitable for V brakes must have grooves and wear indicator like this:

Your Sirius Sport is a lightweight road bike.
I would suggest something like the XF08C or the Aikema 85SX which is a bit lighter.

If you don't need a big battery, I will have 7AH and 10.5AH even lighter water bottle kits end August.

yes, I always make sure that the rims are machined for V-brakes and the motor has 6 bolts for disc brake rotor.
That picture is of an XF07 kit. The rims for XF08C and 85SX are the same.

the boat arrives in Felixtowe 03-August.
We will work through the list of reservations.
It will probably take about a week to 10 days to clear.
