The one thing that couldn't go wrong, did go wrong.

Thanks, Blair. Good luck with your project. Bye. --D-y

It'd be nice to keep the Neuvation rim and spokes (they're
all aero) and find a compatible hub. But how many 24-spoke,
126-mm hubs are there?

OK. Not many 24 spoke freewheel hubs that would have the same flange
diameter. However, there are several 32 spoke freewheel hubs around.
Get one of these, take it to your LBS, have them lace drive side in a
3x, lace every other non-drive side radial (if you want to keep the
cool aero look). Use black aero spokes. problem solved. If this does
not work (or more likely, is not what you consider a viable option),
take your problem child to the best LBS you can find, and explain your
"problem" and the constraints you have placed upon its solution. Let
them "solve" it for you.

We've been through this too often. The term hardening is a misnomer
similar to chain stretch. In its primary sense, hardness is the
elasticity of the substance and that remains unchanged. The modulus
of elasticity of carpentry nails and HS drills is the same while yield
strength is vastly different, the stress at which they take a set when
bent. Alloying, work hardening, and heat treatment all affect the
yield stress but not the modulus of elasticity.
