Bikes: 85 Specialized Expedition, 07 Motobecane Immortal Spirit built up with Dura ace and Mavic Ksyriums, '85 Bianchi Track Bike, '90 Fisher Procaliber, '96 Landshark TwinDirt Shark Tandem, '88 Curtlo

For a modern dream wheel I would go with Phil Wood hubs, 9 speed cassette, Wheelsmith double butted spokes, and Mavic A719 rims.
Old school I would love to find a brand new set of the old Specialized sealed bearing hubs with Wienman rims. They were as smooth as silk.
Either would be 40 spoke rears to carry my large self and gear.
