Nice new pair of hubs for the wife's cross bike, now I just have to figure out the rims to use. Will be ordering orange nipples from wheel fanatyk, wheelsmith XL spoke 2x front and 3x rear non-drive, wheelsmith butted drive side. She's light enough and with 32spokes these will be strong enough that it should be a tough wheel.
Currently tossed between Velocity Aileron, WTB I19 CX, or lightbicycle rims. Not certain the carbon is necessary, the wtb are lightest at 406g but don't know their strength, velocity has always been good to me and it has a nice aero profile while still only 460g.
