That developer's kit data sheet says 13 or 14 ga. I currently have some 14 ga spokes at hand but was wondering about the 13 ga. The cross pattern I want to use is a two-cross but was concerned that maybe if I go too thick w/the spokes, I may not be able to accomplish this...

What do you guys use? Would you guys say that 14 is the lowest I can go for using a 2 cross pattern? Anyway, would like your guys' input, especially from those who own a NuVinci hub. Thanks much!usflg
