NOTE the i9 wheelset weight limits. 100KG max. For a wheelset that is going to see some groading use I'd wanted a stronger build.
You can get Light Bicycle rims in lots of hub configurations...I wouldn't get Novatec hubs--they're cartridge bearing, but that is about all that there is that is nice to say about them. Many people report underwhelming bearing life. Mine or laced to Onyx Racing Products hubs, you can get them with DT or i9 hubs in stock sets
