I do like those offset spoke bead Duster rims. Once I re-tensioned them and got all the machine built screwiness out they've been bombproof.
I went with XT cranks and cassette, Welgo MG1 pedals, Thomson seat post and stem, X9 shifters and RD, Easton EC70 XC bars, Velo Pronto SL.Z3 and some other bits.
Edit: Kenda Karmas and Ill add more as they come to me.
