Before I left, the front wheel on the Bianchi suddenly ate spokes. Bieng that it was a free front wheel, and is older than anything around.. it seems like it'd best to replace it. The bearings are pretty shot, and the areas around the nipples are rusty..

Anyway. I have a DeepV 36 hole rim left over from the build of the Thylacine (I bought three rims). So logic would say to have the DeepV built into the front wheel. A 36 hole.. radial laced would make a good everyday riding, locking up, throwing around rim..

Right?

Or is it better to just buy an Iro rim, premade.. etc.

What's a good, basic high flange hub?

AS I ramble...
