Having ordered rims from LightBicycle I am shortly to get to build them up. Having only built with alloy rims before, are there any particular differences in build technique I should be aware of when using carbon rims?
Many thanks
Tips please for a first time carbon rim build

Grease the nipple seats and use aero spokes. It's easier to build with carbon rims because they basically stay round no matter what you do.
