Wanted to check and see if anyone had purchased a set of wheels from Williams after this thread concluded back in September. I'm looking at their System 30, which uses bladed Pillar Spokes and the Speedcific (or KLM, etc.) Niobium 30 rim (I confirmed the rim type with a call to these folks this morning - nice guys).

My two concerns are the spoke count (16,20) and the hub, since I have no idea as to the hub smoothness or overall quality and durability. I'm about 145lbs at my heaviest so I believe the stiffness/strength issue around the spokes should be kosher.
