Surprised i have to explain this. Snowflake offers very uneven spoke tensions and stresses and is not generally that suitable for a brakeless fixed wheel which is going through far more strain than say a road wheel. I would never recommend such a pattern for that application. Then again you've got one mate whos been ok so far so guess my extensive wheel building knowledge counts for nothing.
Lukeyb - after looking at the work you did on Fils bike you dont have the right to comment mate! fucking rookie
