I am looking to do a special project and build a sub-900 gram aluminum clincher disc. The question is I don't know a lot about wheel building and spokes. I have decided on:
Rim: Velocity Quill (415g) 24 hole
Hub: Enve Carbon Hub with Ceramic Speed bearings (158g) 24 hole
Disc cover: Catalyst (~180grams)
Rim Tape: Silca Rim Tape (~5 grams)
The question I have is about spoke nipples and spokes. I was thinking of using Sapim Super Spoke Bladed as they weigh about 3/4 of a gram less than CX-Ray spokes. Is this going to come back and bite me at all? I was also planning on using DT Pro Lock Hex Nipples
Spoke Nipples??? Sapim Super Spoke Bladed (3.6g each)
Spokes??? DT Pro Lock Hex Nipples (.36g each)
Also any recommendations for a wheel builder in Madison, WI? I was thinking someone at CronoMetro has to know what they are doing.
