I’m going to get some disc road wheels built for my bowman pilgrims and just wanted to sense check parts.

Hope RS4 centre lock disc hubs - 28h front and rear. 142x12mm and 100x12mm thru axle. Steel free hub to reduce bite marks.

Rims - XR31’s

DT revs front laced radially.
DT comps rear laced 3 cross.

Anything daft here?

One thing, my current disc wheels are QR. Is there anything I need to do to run thru axle instead? Sorry, but new to the world of disc.

Youre building these yourself? Id be surprised if a wheelbuilder agrees to this. Dont build a disc wheel radially, and dont do it with revolution spokes.

Dt comps all round or splash out on CX rays. No inbetween

I'm a fan of the pillar bladed spokes, way cheaper than cxrays and I've not noticed a downside.
