The tricky part is, I run a front disc brake (standard IS 6-bolt rotor); I'm having trouble finding a mid-high level front disc hub that's not specific for mountain biking (read: heavy and 32h). I'm only 140lbs, so I was hoping to find a nice IS disc-compatible 100mm 28h (or maybe even 24h?) front hub. I think that'd be plenty sturdy for my needs, and result in a much lighter wheel. Also, I'm leaning towards a novatec fixed/fixed 120mm rear hub, and A23's. I run 35mm tires. That all sound good too?
