Thanks - I'm digging this frame right now....

Wheels - Hmm....... Something new, but with a vintage or classic vibe. Low spoke and aero are out. Maybe a hand built set on the Mavic Open Pro or perhaps DT Swiss RR1.1 rims? Or, how about modern hubs laced to vintage Mavic MA-2 or MA-40 rims? I've got both of those laying about, but they are currently laced to vintage 6 speed hubs.

Nope - at least not for use on the bikes I'm flipping. Seriously, WD-40 has its' uses, and used within certain parameters works very well.
