I've been offered a pair of Phil Wood HF 32h hubs, for a good price.

The front has been laced radially: is this any cause for concern?

Phil warrants all his hubs to be suitable for radial lacing. The spoke bend tends to dent the flange, so it's best to stick to the same lacing pattern if you rebuild an old hub into a new wheel.

Don't get the Phil hub hype. My BDW Novatecs haven't been touched in forever and still spin perfectly.
