Putting the issue of cold setting to 135mm aside, I'll just say that that's a great deal on the XT/A719 36 spoke wheelset. I paid $229 for mine from the same place, but just make sure you call them and tell them you don't want the disc-compatible hubs (like those shown in the ebay pics). The disc-compatible hubs will work, but they just wouldn't look right on a vintage touring bike. When I called them and told them I wanted 36 DT spokes, XT M760 hubs (silver, non-disc), and silver Mavic A719 rims, they said they had a bunch of wheelsets in stock with that exact spec, they just had different pics up in the ebay ad. Good luck with whatever you decide-
