Deep V is 520g according to Velocity's specs. AeroHead is supposedly 450g. ... Looks like most of rims are pretty comparable.

How about welded or non-welded issue? I was lacing R475 (another deep-v) and it's welded. Its welds are strong, but the rim gets a little bit imprecise near the welds, so tuning gets a bit tricky. Deep-V has that too but was less difficult. (socketed together right?) Hplus stuffs are welded. I haven't laced those before.

A perfect timing, I was about to redo my twisted-spoke front wheel the right way. Maybe it may be time to do both.
