Deep V's for a Shallow Pocket

Hey Guys,

My school is having a sale on a bunch of bike stuff. Does $182 for some brand new Velocity Deep V's sound good?

They're most likely laced to Formula hubs. It's a good deal.

If they are really Velocity Deep V's, and aren't laced to Suzue Jr hubs, then get them.

That guy'll hook you up. He's a super nice dude who will answer all of your questions over the phone if you call him. All his wheels are hand built and cheap.
