[Closed] Mavic XM819 wheel building advice sought

I put this on this morning only for it to miraculously disappear.

To cut a quite short story even shorter, I am going to build up a new wheelset this winter, moving on to UST rims from regular ones. I will be dismantling my current Hope Pro II/XM719 set up and re-lacing on to 819s. I'm not particularly au fait with how UST spoke nipples work so was wondering whether I would need to spec and factor in new spokes and brass nipples when purchasing the bits and bobs or whether I could just swap the whole lot over.

Any advice/directions to relevant websites greatly appreciated.

Rob

I'll repaet what I said on your first thread anyway - buy new spokes and nipples, it'll make the whole thing SO much easier
