Rebuild with Mavic X3.1 Disc UST Rims(2 posts)

Rebuild with Mavic X3.1 Disc UST Rimsfcphun

Has anyone rebuilt their wheels with this rim?

I have 6 month old Shimano XT Disc hubs that are in good shape and was wondering if this was the best/least financially painful way to get a UST wheelset. I have several friends riding Crossmax and Crossroc UST wheels and they really like them and are not having problems, so I am focusing on mavic rims.

From what I can tell, neither Crossmax nor Crossroc offer the 32 spoke lacing.

Would appreciate any advice on this, or other UST rims.

Thanks!

the 3.1's work really well .. but be warned, even if your an experienced wheel builder they take almost an hour to lace up.. they are very finiky and take a professional - but the rims work great!
