I am planning on having Mack low flanges laced to archetypes, as a fair weather commute bike in London with a 20/24 count.
I weigh about 63kg, and as far as I'm aware this count is safe, do people normally choose to go higher just for durability? Also a few users have mentioned there are better and cheaper rims than the archetypes now, so any suggestions on different rims? (I probably won't be running brakeless)
