When I built up my Platypus this past summer I borrowed the wheels off of another bike - now I'm ready to give the Platy her very own 650b wheels.
The build is road oriented, intended mostly for day rides and maybe some light touring. Currently running 38mm slicks but plan to replace them with something in the 42 - 44mm range. The bike weighs a bit under 30 lbs and I'm about 165 lbs. I have a wheel set cued up with Pro Wheel Builders; Velocity Quill 32 hole rims, straight gauge spokes, and DT Swiss 350 hubs (the 2021 version). I'm also considering letting Velocity build them for me using their Racer hubs instead of the 350s. Before I pull the trigger though I'd love to hear what thoughts or opinions others might have.
