-did you pick the spoke configuration, or did my PSI pick, or was it a collaboration between the two of you (how did you pick the spokes)

(i'm going to be in the market soon, just askin...)
#1 I'm using my Garmin 705
#2 I'm using my Easton EA90 SLX for now I may have a front built but most likely not the shape of the Kinlin XR-270 rim matches the Easton.
#3 Nothing comes with it I'm just using my Easton skewer
#4 I used the SL+ for a couple of reasons one was for the price I was able to go with the SL+ weight was also a consideration as this is mainly a wheel that will see a lot of climbing and it's only 162 g heaver than my Easton EA90 SLX bike still weighs 14.47 lbs with PT not bad.
#5 I kind of knew what I wanted but I let Rob figure out what was best for me based on my weight and needs and this is what he came up with and I agreed, after all this is what he knows so I'll listen to good advice!.
