So, I'm going to whack a disc fork on my CX/road bike because a) I'd like to stop a bit better and b) the sound of crud on rim when braking gives me the willies ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

I've got my eye on a Salsa La Cruz fork, and I have a 6 bolt MTB hub doing nothing. What I need is something to lace it too (or, more accurately, something I can get the man in the shop to lace it to).

I'm guessing the answer is going to be 'Mavic Open Pro', but what would the STW folk recommend rim wise? It's going to be used with a mix of knobby 32mm tyres for the mud/bumps and slick 25mm for the tarmac.

I went for a stans arch rim although in theory, something that wide should only go as narrow as 28 mm.
