I run with laced wheels but will soon switch to the 12 spoke mags. Why? Because I intend to do a lot of touring, AND I boogie in remote, less populated areas. With a mag you can run tubeless which (as you indicated) equates to a lot less hassle when it comes to a puncture. You can carry a repair kit and a small compressor and be on your way in most cases.



Keith!
Are you the one who stole those wheels on fleabay? I was seriously thinking about buying them. What didn't I? Classic beauty of spoked wheels, that's why. Okay actually something about post Christmas money being short. I will eventually as they are touring dreams.
