Me.
Alex Supra 26" is sup welded joint, very high quality alloy, was their 26" DH/Enduro rim from back in the day. Rigida/ Ryde do a 26" of solid quality aswell, not quite as good an alloy and pin jointed, but they are heavy load rated and built about 4 of them now which haven't immediately exploded during cargo use!
DT don't make anything decent in 26", there is the old 533d, but only in 32h I think, they are OK for about £25/30 but the Alex Supra is better.
Spokes, yeah get some Sapim strong from Ryan, not sure if e-strong (which are a grade beefier) will fit in a Nuvinci, but I know Saprim strongs definitely do fit and work well.
