I don’t know if this has been talked about. I am noticing that most of the boutique (Mavic, Shimano)wheels are laced radial on the front and rear non-drive side and 2-cross on the drive side. Can a set of Dura-Ace/OP be built like this and will they be as strong and durable, or are the pre-built hubs and rims better/stronger/better engineered than the off the shelf individual products.
Also, has anyone built a set like this and what would it weigh and how has it held up?
(OP rims 28 radial front, 32 2X drive side rear, radial rear non drive side)
