Too bad pristine is closing, and that you had to hacksaw your way through the bike.
Still, pre-build sets with novatec high flange hubs and rims of modest height (such as Sun M13 abound). There's a guy close to amsterdam building custom SSFG wheelsets for a very reasonable price. (disclosure: haven't bought a set of wheels from them, but bought some vintage parts of the guy running the shop, and he was very friendly and prompt)
