I have some old bitex hubs and hplus rims laying around that I want to build up. 24/24 count and 2 cross build. What are some good value/low weight spokes? The Lazer spokes soon good but also a little fragile. I also heard they can be difficult to build, windup, and stretch. But they are cheap and only 4.5g. What are some other options out there? Round or bladed doesn't matter.

(Are you sure about 3x cross? 24h 2x cross is most common setup)
