why the team pro over the swift? for that matter, did you consider the arione (or other 'modern' design saddle)? your seatpost choice could be based on two-bolt adjustment, setback, and clamp style over aesthetics, in which case the nitto or thomson is a worthwhile choice.

+1 on RR1.2s if you decide you need a deep-section rim, but as far as i know they only come in black with a machined sidewall.
