Stopped by Shaw's Lightweight Cycles tonight to see about a new wheelset.. This store is the real deal.

I don't know if I am going to get the wheels built there or from Harris online yet, but I'll definitely be back...

+1 I love this shop. I went in there just to see what they had and ended up staying and talking for like 2 hours. They're both very into track racing and the owner runs the beginner's classes at the local velodrome.
