HELP Cross lacing a QS273 18” or 19”?

Hello everyone!

I am trying to avoid “radial lacing” with my QS273 build.

Does anyone have experience cross lacing 18” or 19” rims on the QS273 hub? Any help is greatly appreciated. My goal is to make this bike strong... going to be pushing it as close to 20kw as we can!

Thenk you for the help everybody!

19" rim will probably be easier to lace a large diameter hub motor such as QS273 due to the spoke / nipple angle.. here is a QS273 build that showed up with a quick forum search, so maybe pop in on that thread to ask questions such as spoke dimensions, etc.. :

Thank you for the advice, I just purchased an excel takasago 19-2.15 for the qs273
