I am working on a spoke order for a Bafang SWXK hub motor in a 700c rim. Being one of the smallest motors, it seems like a good chance to go with 2x lacing with an angle less than 9deg (122mm flange diameter). The most used spokes in this case seem to be 13/14g Sapim Strong.
This angle is still about twice that of a standard wheel with 3x lacing. Would using the more rounded polyax nipples provide proper mechanical longevity or would using nipple washers be recommended?
