One of my ..err...chores for this month is to get the wheels laced. I'm a bit overwhelmed by the choices of rims, etc.

Have you guys got any recommendations? As some of you might know the bike is going to end up in SS trim. I'd kind of like something along the lines of the originals, but in stainless...If possible.

The front end is going to be a TLS...Is the spoke pattern the same as for a disc front wheel? Are there any offsets I need to know about?

Your thought would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Steve
 
lace your TLS front the same as the rear, the front should be on center. the rar should be offset to the right about 3/16" , others will comment on how much the rear offset should be.
 
When I was replacing my rims, I got some chromed ones. I'm pretty sure SS is available in the standard looking WM2 rim. SS spokes are also available in either single gauge or the double sized one like original. Walridge has the spokes, not sure who has the SS rim. I laced up my rims like the originals and it was close enough to adjust once on the bike with the spokes.
