Just inherited a 26" rim brake front wheel for my off road rigid tourer build that is slowly coming together, Rim is a Mavic 32H with a Deore hub. in v'good condition.
I know radial lacing is usually done on road bikes for aero and a minor weight saving, Not sure why it was done on this wheel, looks?
Is this lacing pattern alot weaker for a front wheel compared to 3X, Is this going to be disaster for a off road tourer? Should i bother getting it re-laced to a 3X pattern?
Thanks
