38mm china carbon will be just as strong, if not stronger, than Archetypes if built properly. My new wheelbuild will be 20H/20H low flange Macks to 24mm deep light-bicycle carbon, but I'm fairly light so it shouldnt be an issue for London riding. If you've not already put down a deposit on some custom macks, ask him about his 'blemish stock'. I got mine for absolute steal and received them 2 weeks after first enquiring. I can PM you the list of what he had in stock if you want
Thanks for the input, I remember it from my CP thread ;)
Are the times over where you had to be super careful with carbon stuff? I also don't weigh much so that sounds promising.
I didn't contact Mack yet, I wanted to be sure on the spoke count first ;) But I would appreciate your PM!
