Given your location, visit Peter White: phone ahead though.

I run 40 spoke rear wheels; Velocity offers 40 spoke hubs with 130mm OLD. For 135mm OLD, I use Wheelmaster - I them from Niagara Cycle. I build my own wheels. My wife and I are over 500lbs team on our tandem, plus the bike weight and whatever we carry. Tires are 38-622 Schwalbe Marathons at 90psi, on 40H Dyad rims, Wheelsmith SS14 spokes front and rear.
