sorry imi dont mean to hijack your thread honest .

I'd go with something that is off center drilled for the rear like a Velocity Synergy O/C (or even an Aerohead O/C) and the matching rim in the front. I'd build the wheel with DT Swiss Alpine III or Wheelsmith DH13. Both have a stronger head which makes for a stronger wheel.
