Anyone get wheels from Peter White?
Peter White will charge you more than that! Check out the wheel sections of his website. He does offer a full guarantee.

I had wheels built at my local LBS, which has a UCI-trained wheel builder. He asked me all the right quesitons, selected the parts for the wheels, ran it by me, and went ahead with an innovative design. He was willing to build with my NOS rims, Sapim CXray spokes, and 2007 Record hubs. The wheelset weighs 1550 g, has 32 spoke robustness, takes tubulars, and cost $725. Less weight and more stiffness than Mavic for less $$$, and with a lengthy "bring it back, I'll make it right guarantee, one mile from home.
