• I just received these frm hubs (273g the pair!) from @Mr_Bump. I now need some relatively lightweight 32h rims to build them up on. Ambrosio cronos seem to fit the bill at 380g each. Laced with sapim lasers front and race rear they'll come in at around 1400g. For reference I'm ~60kg and I won't be racing on them so I might get away with it, maybe. Thoughts?

    They look to have plenty of holes, 28 Lasers (if you must) are plenty at your weight, except on the drive side rear where you'll probably want Race to give a bit more axial stiffness if you're also using very light, shallow metal rims.

    Given the high spoke count and your low weight, you could even go full weight weenie and use SuperSpokes at the front.

    Alternatively, since you're not racing and so light weight is even more than usually irrelevant, you could be sensible and use Race all round and Nemesis rims (assuming you're wedded to tubs for reasons other than weight weenieism) to make wheels which will last at least twice as long between trips to the truing stand.
