I'm going to be building my first set of wheels which will need to be 26" to work with v brakes - I'm thinking Deore hubs but would appreciate some guidance on the rim and spokes or is the mavic xc717 the best rim to use? It's for my girlfriends bike, limited off road use and svelte-ish. Thanks in advance.
