How much do you weigh? How much load on the bike? What terrain?

3x tends to be plentiful for the most part, send people on world tours 32x 1/2x for Rohloff 26” wheels.

Symmetric hubs build into stronger wheels than offset ones. And they specify max. 2 cross only because it’s a necessity considering the size of the hub :)

Absolutely, and normally we never go above 3x for 26/700 with normal hubs! 4x is overkill unless super heavyweight etc
