Hi,
Thanks for the replies and great advice on my wheelset hunt. I usually start riding my Eros commuter starting in March, so I'm going to get serious with this now.

After shopping around a bit, expanded my budget to be in the 350-500 range. I received a $480 quote from a LBS for a custom hand build using 32H DT Swiss 460s with DT butted competition spokes and Orgin8 Formula hubs.

I think this should do me well.

I also found this on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/H-Plus-Son-...EAAOSwiqFafTKa

I kind of like keeping the hubs Campy, and I've read good things about those rims too. Does that $50 shipping seem high, or is that the going rate for packaging wheelsets? I was thinking offering $375 and see how that goes.

Any thoughts or advice?
