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.
I've ridden heavier than that for a reasonable distance on 28h XR31RTS and much heavier for short spells, including a lot of time with a bit old dent in the front from a range rover.
