As for the Campagnolo Rims they are on Exage Sport hubs. Probably a re-lace.

As for riding, i plan to cold set the frame so I can put 11-28 cassette with 10 speeds, i do a lot of hill climbing, but i am also in flat areas and i like to ride fast. Good. 1st decision made. You don't have to cold-set, but it makes rear wheel swaps/maintenance much easier.

I have already decided to get Ultegra RD with a Dura Ace 10 speed DT shifters, i think they are 7900. Good call. They are very reasonable, look great, shift precisely and quickly (which you'll have to get used to) and you can downshift multiple gears at once. When I build my last Ironman, it will be 10-sp with the DA DT shifters. If Shimano would bring back 9-sp DT shifters, I think they'd sell a ton.

I have ordered a set of black cable housing, also a set of black wellgo pedals with chrome toe clips and black leather straps. Thinking to get a 50/34 FSA Vero Crank for it too. Another good choice. Watch your budget, but sounds nice.

What is your opinion on selling the rims with the hubs, what can i get for them? $50-$75 here. I may have a 10-sp cassette lying around, but not an 11-28, probably 11-26. I'll check.

I am also planning to part out the Biopace crank, is there any demand for it? Probably only here, or on eBay, but at least it will fit in a medium Flat Rate box, so shipping is a snap. Many older riders, and some fixed gear folks, like the BioPace.

Thanks.
