24 holes

What's the point in having this many holes other than to save wait.
The downslide to this is that you need a lightwait rider to accommodate this, and guess what....nobody I know has carbon fibre limbs with titanium skin.
From what I can gather the hubs are freely available but you may have to ride up to 2 miles to even get one, this is too far for most hipsters and could leave them stranded in no mans land (anywhere outside Shoreditch) with no way of knowing where they are, and no visible landmarks such as the historically enriched
"beyond retro" to guide them.
Way to much hassle for what its worth. Oh yeah, you have to pay extra for the fewer holes too, even though it takes up less time to drill, wtf is all that about?

My club only has 18 holes ( not counting the bar) i think this is speacially for time trial / track use though

Golf specific?

Um, what do you mean? There's nout wrong with 24 spoke wheels as long as you're not riding down stairs and stuff (or on London's roads..)

Light wheels are fast, fast is good

Ah ok, so I guess if you live outside of London they work just fine then.........

Weeeeell, if you're careful of pothole and the likes they'd be sweet.

I think BLB stock hubs, but they are wank

More aero too. (Less spokes "chopping" through the air, for want of a better term!)

24 holes on the front with the right rim and a sensible weight rider (<80kg), built correctly makes for a fast wheel.

I think I'm reaching a 3 year mark couriering on my 24 hole Gipiemme rims...
Rear is 3 cross and it may need some touching up this summer. Radially laced front was not strong enough and after 2 years on London's road is currently awaiting rebuilding. Theres nothing wrong with 24s

I find there are not enough holes so I run 25 spoke on my wheels. You get the best of both world that way.

for those people who weigh less than 20 stone

For someone as "chunky" as you (and with all that experience in power-lifting), I'd have at least thought you'd learn how to spell "weight".

what is the downside of being lightweight james???

I never thought I'd see the day...

riding in london, despite what any aerospok rider might say, does not involve that word in any sense. unless you're doing 25+ you need to htfu and work harder, not buy fewer spokes.

i'm sure he will argue that it's all muscle

I guess my subtle attempts at humour in this thread by intentionally mispelling a few words were lost on you neophytes eh :p

I honestly wasn't sure if you were serious or if this was a piss-take on the ribbing you got for running 48s? I'm still not sure..

The old, "It was intentional" excuse.
