i built the same pattern and crossed ...the inside spokes under under over, the middle under,over,under and the outer over under over......and seemed all right it felt really stiff when you squeezed the flanges together much stiffer than 3 cross.....and it was a bit of a bitch to true becuz of so many crosses and was making really weird creaking when prestressed but once done it was really sturdy..........and it was a velocity deep v on dia compe high flange and halo black DB spokes
and no problem with the tyres or anything at all......i guess the truing was easy cuz the rim is deep section as
