32h Bitex RAF12 to a 26" rim - problems?
Very much a newbie so any advice, much appreciated. I wanted to build a lightweight 26" wheelset and starting with a Bitex RAF12 found cheap online. Now wondering if this will work: the 16holes on that narrow diameter flange look crowded.
Spokepro's calculator says "spokehead clearance" of 0.1mm (with 3cross). Is that do-able? 2cross comes out as 1.9mm clearance - a better choice? Will it make a much weaker wheel? Thanks.
