New Wheel for My Norco Sight

I've just built a new front wheel for my Norco Sight A 2014.  Stock front wheel was built of Alex TD26 rim (470gr) and Joytech D041-15 hub (290gr) and its overall weight was more that 1kg!
I've bought new WTB KOM i23 650B rim (420gr) and have built a new wheel using 32 butted spokes and front ZZYZX hub (220gr) from my previous Corratec bike. The spokes' length was 262 mm that's why I've built my wheel using 2 cross lacing pattern. Front 20mm Zzyzx hub was transformed into 15mm using Hope Pro 2 adapters. 
860 grams! Great result for the front wheel!
