A couple of weeks ago I was leaning toward the Velocity Blunts, but their apparent unavailability at the time gave me more time to think, and that's when I started sinking.

The thing that worried me about the Blunts was their lack eyelets. Is that something I should worry about or no? I saw somewhere that the round surface is supposed to make it a non-issue, but I wasn't entirely clear about that. Given that this will be my first wheel build, I think I'll have a greater than average chance of botching the spoke tension.

The VXC's look like a good possibility too, but I wasn't sure they were width enough for my fat tires. I guess I can contact Velocity and get their recommendations about that.
