Experience with Nova Road OS DB Cro-Mo

I'm starting to pull together the bits for my second frame. This time, I'd like to go with oversized double-butted cro-mo, with long point lugs. I was looking at tubesets and saw that Nova sells a housebrand tubeset that fits the bill and seems to be very similar to the Dedacciai oversized road tubeset, which is nearly twice as much money. Does anyone here have experience with this Nova tubeset? Would it be suitable for building a 58cm sports-tourer for a 200 pounder?

Thanks,

Pete
