If the rear isn't a track hub, don't bother reusing it. Waste of time and money.

The NYCbikes wheels are good, but they have a reputation for TERRIBLE customer service and packing (they just toss 'em in a box).

Go the IRO route, or else bensbikes on ebay for some formula hubs or wheels.

If you are really strapped, you can reuse the front hub with little/no trouble. It just won't be as pretty.

*edit* IRO is closed for now, so hit up bensbikes on ebay for the same thing as the NYC wheels, only from a good seller.
