• Slowly getting round to being able to afford all the bits to build up my wheels. I've got campag record (older silver) 28h hubs and kinlin xr31t rims. I'd like to run Sapim CX ray spokes front and rear. From a purely stiffness and practicality point of view will this setup work well or should I go with CX ray front and something else rear?

  • 28 CX-Rays will be plenty unless you're seriously loading them up, like >130kg all up. You can save a bit, add some stiff and lose very little in aeros by using DT Aero Comp. Of course, with 28H XR31s you're not exactly building aero wheels from the start, so you could just use Sapim Race or DT Comp round spokes 🙂

  • Ok cheers. The rays look fab though! And I can get spokes at cost price so the extra cost isn't much. I'll check out the dt aero comp too cheers
