Built Front and Rear Wheels with Chinese Carbon Tubular Rims

Another day of wheel building (and so on).

I built front and rear wheels using Chinese carbon tubular rims.
The front rim is 25mm deep, and the rear rim is 38mm deep.

Front wheel: some silver hub, 20H CX-RAY outpoke radial lacing,
Rear wheel: FH-9000, 24H full Campagnolo pattern.
Whether I'll braze them or not, I'm not sure yet.
Even though it's a wheel with a big octo (flange spacing),
the decision not to go with asymmetric (left/right different) lacing wasn't my call.
