july 2008/23 Suzue Pro Max on Mavic CXP-33 3-cross
Suzue Pro Max on Mavic CXP 33. The plan was to build these wheels with a radial front and 3-cross rear patterns. But I found it difficult to source the two spoke lengths at a good price. My usual sources had one or the other. And ordering the spokes from two sources would have meant double the postal costs. In the end I found someone on ebay selling the required length at a very reasonable price. So it was 3-cross front and rear.
Spoke length was 285mm using DT Champion plain gauge spokes and brass nipples. It was the first time that I had used these hubs. They were similar to the Campy record hubs in spec. Very nice.

It’s smart to find out websites with information and thanks for the discuss that will you’ve done. Mostly, I’m pretty stunned, but etc…
