Not so bad with a stiff rim, and road use. But with a low profile rim, and a bumpy ride its definitly not the best solution.

Also most manufacturers throw a clause in the warranty that basically says the warranty is void if laced radially. Even my DA 7710s has that little disclaimer.
I've always had good luck with 1x or 2x lacing patterns for front daily driver wheels.
And, just my .02- machined hub shells are much more likely to fail than forged. American Classic had a problem with that a few years back. Lots of front hub flanges failing on their track wheels
