I don't really know where to start

Aksiums are a good start. Get back to us if you break them.

Just feel a little uneasy putting heavier loads on a 20 spoke wheel though? I'm 85kg or so to start with and the mavic state the weight limit at not much over 100 iirc

cue tester saying how he's a million kilos and rides 8 spoke wheels on world cup downhill tracks.

The rim's quite deep and not lightly built, so that will help spread loads across the spokes.
