Nice wheelbuild! Did you have to modify the hubs to use the CXRays? I really like the feel of double-butted spokes but I've always wanted to try bladed spokes for a racing wheelset. I'm glad there are a few of us who haven't drunk the Deep V Kool-aid! (They're great for clydes, tandems, and touring, don't get me wrong!)
