I believe everything on yours is in house. Just waiting it's time up the queue.

Just upgraded to White Industries hubs, now the wait is going to be even harder on me.

Bought elsewhere.
Thank you not so very much...

Nice...just give me your email address so I don't bother replying. Busy guy and this is a side business. I take my licks because of not having the resources to respond to everyone in a timely manner. Best thing is that those with patience will end up with the best wheels.

For what it's worth I called Rob yesterday and he took the time to talk to me on a Sunday while preparing for a race. He very easily could have ignored the call and gotten back with me later. At no point did he rush the call and he didn't try to talk me into spending more money. He is certainly a busy guy but I have a feeling that the wheels are going to be worth the wait.

Is it wrong to be setting around day dreaming about wheels?

I had him build me a set of 50 mm carbon tubulars with my PT rear hub and my DT Swiss front hub. 3K miles later they are as true as on day 1. Good communication and painless transaction. Would buy from him any day of the week without hesitation.

I still haven't decided exactly what I am getting, leaning towards the Fuji Altamira LTD though. If I go with it I will have to wait until the end of January when Fuji gets them in stock.

Yep, it's a beautiful frameset and you got a great deal on it. I used to have a TCR, probably around 04 or 05, it was my first carbon frameset and still remains one of my favorites. I actually had the ti IF Crown Jewel that I used to own built based on the geometry of the TCR.
