@6pt is on 36/36 I think, so 36/40 with modern spokes and rims should be fine I'd have thought.
Nah, 40 40 for us. Still got some hairline cracks appearing around the eyelets on my 719s after 8 weeks of heavy touring :(
I started with 36 36 on mavic 319s and was getting through a rear rim in a fortnight. But that's cos I'm fat and we like carrying nice things with us.
