• Potential wheelbuild:

    Pacenti SL25 32h rims

    SON dynamo front

    DT Swiss 350 rear

    CX ray spokes

    will be used for long distance riding/touring and some gravel/fire road stuff too.

    thoughts/advice? They will be thru-axlebut should I go for 6bolt or centerlock?

  • thoughts/advice?

    CX-Rays are a waste of money if you're not racing. Use Sapim Race or DT Comp for stiffer stronger cheaper wheels, or even Alpine III for even better durability as you're fairly big and going off road

    should I go for 6bolt or centerlock?

    I'd go 6-bolt given the choice, nobody knows how long it will be before Shimano has yet another change of mind and you're stuck with another obsolete proprietary "standard".
