• It's not the 2x lacing that the problem. Trust me on that 3x wont fix the issue. 3x will actually be less stiff laterally and radically. 3x just adds torsional stiffness, I.e reduces tension changes caused by pedalling.

    I lace plenty of wheel 28h kinlin xr22rt rims 2x for rim brakes and they dont go wrong. So there nothing wrong with 2x lacing.

  • I agree with your comments on stiffness.
    Evidently, the Kinlin XR22rt is a stiffer rim than the DT and there lies the problem.
