Also a few folks, me included, would advise against switching a used hub from crossed to radial spoking due to the pressure marks left by the crossed pattern spokes in the hub flange and edges of the holes. So get a new hub or use one that was radial spoked already. In particular with a low spoke count wheel such as a 24 I'd suggest that this is even more important than on a 32 spoke wheel.
