As I was there Fed-Ex delivery comes in, owner looks it over and says looks like your new wheels just came before I even had a chance to ask him about it. Needless to say I was pretty stoked.
Good result!
If your shop owner is up to it, might be worthwhile to re-tension the spokes on the new wheels. Basically, loosen them all up and re-true the wheels. Takes time (and money), but it seems to help take the gremlins out of machine built wheels.
