I've just purchased a 310 from Grin unlaced. I plan to build it into a Sun Rhynolite 26" rim I have, 2 cross with some 14G plain gauge spokes I am able to source very cheaply from SJS Cycles (I have a frame-builder friend who can include them in his next order so I can save on postage).
Has anyone built one of these into a wheel yet?
Justin/GRIN recommend 13/14G Sapim Strong spokes because the 13G threads provide a stronger nipple engagement. However these are quite an extra cost. Has anyone used 14G plain gauge spokes? What's the general feeling - will they be OK? Should I use brass washers under the heads?
