Thanks but I've found a few places that would build them. I'm looking for a place that sells them already built.

That hub/rim combo is not mass produced. That's why you don't see them hanging at your LBS.

I know that but a lot of places online usually have prebuilt wheelsets ready to go Like Formulas laced to Deep Vs. Just wanted to see if this combo was available built.

No, I don't think it is. The formula/Deep V combo is wildly popular and is profitable to have stocked up so that's why post places have them. That said you can try calling wheel mega-warehouses like Wheel&Sprocket, Prowheelbuilder, and Bell's Bikes to see if they just happen to have that combo laying around in stock somewhere. If not suck up the two week waiting period!

Why you would lace good hubs like the Miches to mediocre rims like the o-pros is another question.
