Evening all. I’m looking to build an S2C hub onto a 16” velocity rim for a brompton. The rim comes in 28 and 32 hole, whilst the hub comes in 32 and 36 hole drillings. I’m about 70kg, and it’s just for light commuting. Can anyone recommend spoke number (and therefore which combo of rim and hub drillings) and cross requirements. Have seen this done with as few as 16 spokes with allegedly no issues, but don’t really fancy breaking spokes. Thanks for any help :)
