Dos anyone have any input about the lacing pattern for my Raleigh 20 project's wheels?
I've got the rims and hubs ready, I just need to decide on 2x or 3x so I can order spokes. The front is a NOS shallow rim on a 36h LX rim brake hub and the rear is a Halo EX3 32h BMX race rim on a System EX flip/flop hub. I'm leaning towards 2x simply on the assumption that the at will be plenty strong enough on a 20" wheel. I've never built a 2x wheel but it's not exactly rocket surgery compared to a 3x is it?
