I built up a set of Dyad rims with Deore XT Hubs and DT Swiss double butted spokes over the winter and had my LBS true and tension, so far so good with only 200 miles so far. I didn't really save any money ($20) by buying all the components separately but did learn how to lace a wheel and figure spoke length so it was a fun winter project and am really happy with the wheelset.
