Good idea for a thread! I'm after some
advice myself - specifically on spokes.
I'm building a set of nice road going fixed wheels. They'll only be used on the road as I've got some other wheels for the track. I've got some Mack hubs coming eventually and probably going to couple them with some open pros but don't have the first idea what spokes to get. I've only bought cheap spokes in the past but I've only ever built cheap wheels.
Aero is obviously not much of a priority as they're going to 3x laced 32h with low profile rims but what should I priotise - lightness, quality? I don't mind spending a bit as I'm throwing money at the other parts but would love some recommendations.
