I've got a pair of Bontrager race wheels (clincher) and I'm not crazy about them. I was thinking of building up a tubular wheelset with the hubs. Does anyone have a recommendation, or know if there's availability of decent 20 and 24 hole tubular rims? Box section or slight aero profile is fine. Thanks so much for any recommendations.

I done that exercise last year I got some 50mm rims from Tawan where Renyolds rims are made and most other carbon rims.
That hole drill is fairly standard with 33 mm and 50mm tubular is much cheaper than clinchers and the rims run cooler.
will need a spoke tension guage if you are going to build them yourself. No problem takiong the tension up so long as its even.
