+1 to pretty much everything Tim said, especially not re-inventing wheels. Let's use the light weight drop forged aluminum ones that come with steel belted tubeless radials from the store, not the ones we carve out of our own block of rubber attached to a bit of steel plate with assorted screws. We might have to build a hub with a standard bolt pattern to do it but probably worth it in the long run.
