@hippy - Ha! You were wrong, 70kg more like two of those, but in my defence I am 6ft 3in (yes I know, still way too heavy). How tall/heavy are you out of interest? Thanks for the advice re your experience of fewer spoke wheels. Think I'll wait until I've shifted some more pounds before I build that hub up. The current wheels I'm running are the standard ones that came with the Fuji Track, they get slated regularly but I tweaked them by hand after doing a wheel-building workshop and they're holding up just fine. If a little on the heavy/basic side of things.
