I have a rigida sputnik to deore 6 bolt rear wheel going spare if you want. Absolute bombproof wheel

Thanks for the offer but forgot to state it’s an older rim brake frame couldn’t stand the uselessness of a disc hub. :(
Budgeting has come to mind, but the frame needs a respray, possibly an other fork and when I’m at it, a custom stem and racks.
If I decide to go the Ryde/Rigida route, I might aswell go for the fancy CSS stuff. Although I do want to keep the bike as light as possible while still being able to load it up.

Looking to build some new wheels for light-ish touring but cannot seem to find any maximum weight limits for the Kinlin range. Maximum load while be about 130kg (75kg rider + 10kg bike + 20kg luggage + 20% contingency)
I would like a dynamo front hub, probably SP PV-8 and a Deore rear hub (or anything bombproof I find second hand).
Thinking 32 spokes front and rear, but undecided on the XR22/26/31 rims.
I already have a set of XR31 wheels, but do not really need anything that high on the tourer bike. Unless I can find some valid points for getting the 31s over the 22/26.
