I am relatively new to fixed/ss, as I generally ride vintage twelve speeds. I would like to build a single speed commuter, and I need some advice on this wheelset.
Since the rural and suburban roads near me are marred with potholes and irregularities, I would like to go with Velocity Deep Vs. I am also interested in the Miche Primato Pista hubs as a potential upgrade from the Formula hubs that these rims are usually laced with. Has anyone had experience with Miche Hubs laced to Deep Vs? Is it even a worthwhile upgrade over the Formulas?
I would also like to know what I should expect to pay at a LBS to have the wheels built up.
As always, thanks in advance.
