Lookign to build some new wheels, probably light-bicycle 26" on Hope Pro II. Want these to be nice and light, but able to take soem abuse.

Thinking DT Revs are probably too lightweight for me at 220lbs or so, so leanign towards SuperComps.

Any recommendations? Would I get away with Revs (AM/Enduro riding, drops, jumps, etc), or am I better with SuperComs, or some other alternative?

And where's the best place to buy - Rose Bikes?

Do supercomps use std nipples? A concern for me if not.

At your weight id just use comps or similar.

Comps from rose sounds good.

They use 1.8mm DT Nipples. Bad?
