I almost certainly AM riding TCR.

You got a spot in the rooster as well? Or planning to ride without number. Sounds great! You'll get to meet @CarlosBI in person :) and vice versa

No, I'm a legit entrant.

Oh, I received my dynamo hub from @CarlosBI and it's with @scherrit waiting for me to find some suitable rims to use with it.

CarlosBI in reply to @hippy

Nope. Any more ideas? Scherrit has not internet so can't do much looking.

I like the 511db but none of the DT stuff comes in 36h for the rear and my fat arse.

4 spokes extra = little bit of insurance.>

32 is enough
36 doesn't provide more resistance.
Some years ago the problem was the lower quality of spokes, nowadays it is easier to break the rim or similar probability than spokes.

Alternatives...
R460

Notubes Alpha 340 or 400 if you prefer.
