Ok, with the 8th inch coupon going around its made me question an upgrade that im not too knowledgeable on. Wheels.

My Question: I have a Specialized Langster. Its a year old, the hubs are still in great condition and I like the way they ride so I dont want to get new ones. Also, I already have a hub so why buy a new complete wheel? It just seems like the more expensive route.

So, is it smarter and cheaper for me to buy this rim and have my LBS lace it up to my hub? Any idea on what your local LBS charges for such a procedure?

( I understand this upgrade is nothing more than cosmetic, thats why Im checking the price of it all.)
