Mavic Ellipse seem to work so why not?
Because the Ellipse rim has more radial stiffness than the Archetype, the Ellipse spokes are stouter than what you're planning to use, and the Ellipse hubs are straight-pull so there is no spoke bend to worry about. Apart from that, your analysis is flawless :)
Is 20/24 Archetype on low flange hubs doable for street abuse? Mavic Ellipse seem to work so why not?
I want to order the hubs soon but still wanna have the option to go for 20/24 carbon.
Spokes should be DT Comps as I built 2 wheels (32 spokes though) with them and they are bombproof.
