Yehp. I've seen a couple of these rims laced up wrong like this...
You can see from this picture how much angle it puts on the spoke near the nipple when it's laced wrong.

I really really really hate the look of these new 2.4 or above tires. It just looks ridiculous. Why do you need bigger tires for softer landings when you know damn well that the majority of your spot is a foot tall ledge.

Yes. Even the mountainbike industry learned that anything bigger than 2,3" (maybe 2,5" for the worst downhill tracks) is quite useless. And while they now fancy tanwalls and fatbikes, BMX is now jumping on the 2,6" gazzaloddi train and makes it even worse with that fuckin colours.
