Mavic 501 laced to?

I have got hold of a very rare Mavic 501 rear hub with 24 holes, didn't know they existed at such low spoke count... any idea what to lace it to?
Ideally a late 80-early 90 rim, possibly with a bit of profile, needs to be stiff enough for low spoke count construction... would even go carbon, but I can't face changing pads all the time
Tubular would be best
 
Presumably something from the Mavic CXP range will suit? a bit later than my era though :)

Don't come as 24 and hardly exciting...

Anyone has any experience with Campagnolo Omega V? Braking OK? I had some Wolber Profil 18, very similar and the braking was juddering to say the least

i have a mavic 501 front 24 hole wheel, the rim is a 650c wolber tx profile i think, i assume aimed at the TT or track riders.
 
I have spotted a set of Omega V at 24 holes... my concern with rims like that is whether the braking will be as awful as the Wolber Profil 18... I loved them, but just could not use them... the bulge at the rim joint was gigantic
