Bikes: too many

20 spoke rims from QBP (the commonest parts catalog most any bike shop can order from...). last field on each line is the QBP catalog number.

DT Swiss RR585 - black - RM1843
Enve Composites - 45 Clincher - RM0540
Enve Composites - 68 Clincher - RM0560
H+Son - SL42 - black - RM4378
Zipp 111(101) - alloy - RM7951
Zipp X44 (303 Firecrest) - carbon - RM7953
Zipp X56... lots more Zipp's.

16 spoke rims...
can only find Zipp. see page 698 of the 2012 QBP Catalog.

there's another consideration here. low spoke count wheels require VERY high spoke tension, and are not something the average bike shop is prepared to deal with. I know I sure wouldn't want to be replacing a 20 or 16 spoke rim.
