I have built and am quite happy with a laser/d-light wheelset. Didn't have a problem with wind-up building with lubricated components. However I think it's too much rim (too stiff) for those spokes in this application, cue brake rub.
Same here. Built two wheel sets, both with lasers (+non-butted on rear drive side), and haven’t had any problems whatsoever.
Perhaps it’s because I’ve only built those two wheels though.
