Plugs? What's this?Originally Posted by SadieKate
I'll admit that every wheel I've ever built has been 36 hole and 3-cross, except for tandems or loaded tourers which might get 40 hole and 4 cross. I need to try something new someday.
White Industries H1 hub: the photo on their web page looks like this hub requires minimal, if any, dishing because the non-drive side flange is set in almost as much as the drive side flange. True? Not sure which would be stronger: minimizing the dish, or putting the flange as far out as possible.
I was reading a wheel building manual recent which highly recommended butted spokes for their stretching properties.
