I want to give wheel building a go.
Where do I start?
The hubs would be Hope Mono RS and rim Pacenti SL23 650b.
Specs for hubs: http://www.hopetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/2016-UPDATED-HOPE-HUBS-SPOKE-OFFSET-AND-PCD3.pdf
I tried the DT spoke calculator and it has given me following results for 2x lacing all round:
Rear right: 272mm
Rear left: 277mm
Front both: 278mm
I dont understand what spokes I would need. I want all year round wheelset for rim brakes and I weigh 63/65kg.
