[#7047873]

Ok got a rear wheel to build and have a decision to make for the disk side spoking. It's going to be 3 cross but the spokes that take the braking load heads-out or heads-in (to have more load on the hub flange when braking)

recommendation seems to differ for some hubs King, Shimano, Hope

What do the masses think?

I went with the shimano suggestion. In reality, I don't think it matters but my reasoning was that king make high end kit where as shimano employ lots of engineers and make kit to work at all levels. If one is better than the other, I have more faith that shimano will be the ones with the right answer.
