2-cross Lace pattern
What death will ensue if I 2 cross my rear wheel? I can't seem to find any information about it online... Considering I'm a pew'ny guy weighting in at only 130lbs (On a good day) and I'm not into the skidz...
Will all hell break loose if I lace my rear track wheel in a 2-cross pattern?
(Side note: yes I am aware that I should lace in a 3-cross because it is stronger, however the spokes to complete a 3-cross require me to wait... Which I am fine with doing if 2-cross=death...but I like keeping myself busy so I would prefer to dabble in another wheel build over waiting another week.)
