most high end wheels are isopulse or similar. most Handbuilt wheels I've seen are all 32 spokes give or take 4.

What's the difference in ride characteristics if any?

Is isopulse better?

Is one stiffer?



Ive ridden shimano r550/mavic ksyrium elites & aksium race/ some cheaper alex rims all with different tires. I've never had the pleasure of riding an expensive traditional wheel like a built up Open pro or DT swiss with 28 or 32 spokes.
