-Favoring the H+ Archetype and the simplicity of cartridge bearing hubs.
If I go 24/28 the hub option I'm favoring is DT 350 F&R (however 24h DT 350 front hubs only come in radial / straight-pull)
If you guys want to talk me out of radial front, I can do 28/28 instead and use either DT 350, or Miche hubs.In either case, what lacing pattern would you recommend based on my usage and weight?24 radial front, 28 2x rear?or28 2x front & rearor something else?

Never worked with straight pull spokes personally, but I've heard it's difficult to tension them since you don't have an easy way of holding the spoke in place when turning the spoke nipple. Not an issue with j-bend.

In any case drive side cross has tradionally been more popular since people assume flexy hubs.
