http://oddsandendos.safeshopper.com/9/109.htm?929 $39. Would cut the cost of spokes and nipples in half also... It is a deep v rim, 25mm. I have a wheelset built with those and miche track hubs has been running very well.
oddsandendos is out of the sun venus and i guess they're not getting any more. i ordered a pair and they replaced them with velocity fusions. a good substitute, not exactly what i was going for, but i think i came out ahead in any case. good folks over there. spokes are cheaper from them than from anywhere else I know of.

edit: i should note they asked me before substituting! alex was very helpful and communicative.
