Just surprised the Belgiums come in such low spoke count for such a low profile. Guess I'll go deeper carbon. Thanks.

Thank you! More question to follow as I get things moving.

I was interested in attempting my first build with the HED Belgium (not the +), but I couldn't find the justification for it being twice the price of the H Plus Son Archetype.

Edit: I'm just going to go with another set of archetypes. I like the profile, a smidge heavier than the Belgium's, but half the price. I can put the difference elsewhere... Last edited by mwynne; 10-30-2016 at 10:59 AM. |

Looking to lace up some Belgium rims and was wondering if the holes come in from an angle and its impact on lacing? They say on the site they are drilled center line but the pictures look like they are on an angle? Wheels are to be 20 spoke radial
thanks

I have a set of his disc Altimont Lite wheels (hub and rim). They are. They are very nice. Great finish. Take a pounding without issue. He is doing a great job with his product and quality control.

The HED Belgium C2 wheel that I built is my everyday go-to wheel. 100% complete confidence in its durability and performance. I managed to find a rim for less than $100. Expensive but over time and for what it does, well worth it. During that same period, I also built a couple of wheels with H Plus Son, A23 and Pacenti. The Belgium comes up top of the class.

This pic looks like offset..so if hole on right of center, tire side, spoke goes to left flange.

Thank you. I agree holes look offset on tire side but run center on rim side. Would that mean they are angled and I should run spokes as you mentioned, left offset tire side to right side of hub?

Yes, best path to hub for nipple and spokes.

I just had my shop build up a set of wheels with the new Hope road disc hubs & easton R90SL rims - very happy with them. Rims are wide, setup tubeless easy, and the whole build is very stiff. I'm happy with them. Lots of good choices out there right now - being able to run low pressures tubeless (cyclocross) was my #1 priority, and the Eastons looked to be the best of the bunch there.

With the front wheel done, it looks like I now need to reach out for a bit of help as I now have a question in regards to lacing my rear wheel straight pull GS hub.
Starting form the drive side when lacing, is it best to run the first set of spokes from the inside hub holes or the outside holes located on the flange? Thanks
