I have a pair of Velocity Synergy rims coming in, rear hub is going to be XT 135mm, and front is going to be a Sanyo dynohub. All in silver so hopefully it doesn't detract from the vintage look too much. The frame is the modern Columbus SL, standard tubing sizes.
Sounds like a great build, I take it this is a frame you're building yourself right?
