This is a new rear wheel for Aiden’s GT Sanction.  The rim is a Mavic F519, the hub a Ringle 135mm with a 12mm thru-axle – Aiden supplied both of these.

The hub was 36 hole so I laced the drive side 3x and the non-drive side as 4x.  This increases the spoke tension on the disc side of the hub – the driveside is tensioned to 125N and with this lacing pattern the disc side is around 100N.  Without this lacing pattern the disc side would be down below 80N.  The increased spoke tension will mean a stronger wheel ready for the big hucks :-)
