When building a three-cross pattern wheel, I've always been accustomed to the outside spokes crossing over two and go under the third spoke. However, I noticed that the Fulcrum Sport rear wheel on my Bianchi with a 3-cross pattern on the drive side, has the outside spokes crossing over all three spokes instead of over two and under one. The non-drive side of the wheel has eight radial spokes and there are 16 spokes on the drive side.

So I recently built a spare rear wheel with a 24-spoke, 3-cross pattern. This wheel has 12 pokes on each side and was built with all outer spokes crossing over three spokes instead over over two and and under one on both sides.

Does anyone see a problem with this unusual - to me - crossing pattern?

Thanks!
