Congratulations, I am building up a new Lynskey too! It looks like yours has a "Custom" decal on the down tube. If you don't mind me asking, was it built for you, or did you buy it from another owner? The only reason I ask is that those appear to be an older version of their dropout / seatstay / chainstay attachments, and I wasn't sure if they were still using that design.

As a side note, I am not sure if Campagnolo changed the design of their Scirocco wheels since I had a pair from around 2006, but I wasn't particularly happy with that wheelset. After about 2 1/2 years, I noticed multiple eyelets breaking out from the rim on the rear wheel, and Campy wouldn't cover that under their 3 year warranty. Of course the design may have changed since then, or you may have a different result even if it is the same design. For wheels in that price range, I would also suggest the Mavic Aksium.
