Just had a look and it seems that 24h rims can be used for 2:1 with a 36 hub but not exclusively.
I made a mistake in calculating the spoke length for this. 3x can't be used with the flange diameters I have on a 650b rim. The crossing spoke would be going over the spoke head next to it.
So plan is at the moment to go 2x on the front and recalculate spoke lengths. -
Hi thanks for this info. Wheel in question is a 28 rear.
Am beginning to see the light here and worry less where circs differ from 'the manual'. The Sheldon Brown guide does indeed say that the lead spoke location may not be the 1st after the valve (DS) and as you've said clearly some people start to the left of the valve. Having now looked at some kinlins on a shop built wheel they are laced heads facing DS on both flanges with crossing spokes heads faced away.
Your point about 24 holes raises an issue as I bought a 24 for the front wheel so will have to address this one way or another, and find out what triplet 2:1 is. Theres already an issue with the number of crosses there.
Cheers and thanks for your help -

Wheelbuild help: I'd like to get a few pointers please if thats okay!
A few questions.
Currently trying to lace a Kinlin RD 3FT onto an Erase rear disc hub. My 2nd build and I'm struggling!
I'll refer to this looked at from the drive-side.
The holes are offset. The 1st hole forward of the valve is offset to the non-drive.
Is that common? Most how-to's seem to start with a drive side spoke in that hole.
Also looking at the hub (its 2nd hand has been laced previously),
The drive-side trailing spokes were laced heads in, but heads out on the non-drive? Is this common also?
I have a nasty feeling I've overreached but there again I went through that feeling with my first build! Cheers all! -
