• I'm soon going to be building some 22mm depth china-carbon rims to low flange mack hubs, 20h front and 24h back. Seems like a recipe for the flexiest wheels ever, will spokes make any difference to remedy this?

    My gut says CX-rays would be the best bet but will I actually see any improvement? Spoke weight is a factor given these are some of the lightest track hubs around and the rims are both >400g. I weigh less than 65kg for reference

  • improvement?

    compared to what?
    cx rays are squashed laser spokes (2mm - 1.5mm - 2mm) so are light

    What is the flange spacing on the hubs?

  • Not sure. Will there be any difference in stiffness between CX rays and lasers? Do spokes even effect stiffness? Id rather spend the extra on cx rays so i dont have to worry about spoke wind up
