A lot of people use those rims for cross racing so you'll be alright (aside from the ugly sidewalls ).

Correct, specifically with two bolt thomson style clamp. They allow precise adjusment of angle and fore/aft position and stay put. After years of fighting cheaper posts and interior designs, i tried a thomson. I have not bought anything other than a Thomson stem or post since. I don't need lots of setback specifically, just not a straight post. Ill stick with the nitto s-83 for now.

Scrod,
If I were to order a set of wheels (flip/flop hub) from you, what components should I be looking at?? My budget is a bit over $350 and would prefer black to go with my color scheme. These wheels would be for my Bianchi I am building up.
You got some of my money last week, looks like you're gonna get more. Thanks!!

@Flatulentfox you might give them a call and see what their projected time frame is now. It's a good post and unlike the Thomson, I think the bend is probably high enough for your needs.

Was thinking of picking up an additional wheel-set b/c my current are junk.
Found a pair of Paul Hubs/H+S Archetypes (w/ All-city Cog/Lockring) for $375. Seems like a good deal???
but what I am concerned about is the combo with my SRAM Omnium and the chainline + dishing?? I am really new to this concept tbh and been trying to educate myself, I have read some people say this combo causes problems and will not work/create noise etc. etc. Other people have said there is no issue (i think I might have read a post from you too saying you had an Om + Phil Wood combo at one time.)
Looking for some advice.

seriously just derped so hard... thank you. thats my dislexia in action. Honestly I saw a P + L, got excited and skipped between the lines.
Idon't know a lot about Paul but it seems some like them more then Phil.
So Paul (44?) vs Phil (42?) which one works with Omnium? I don't want to jump into a purchase and make a mistake.

Omniums give a 45ish mm chainline. Either one will be fine.
My only beef with Paul hubs it that they don't come fixed/fixed. Because you can safely install a freewheel on fixed threading if need be but can't install a fixed cog & lockring on freewheel threading, fixed/free is useless.

it doesnt affect the ride that much but if you dont want your $100 cog to look less flashy, i recommend going with something else for hubs. at least for rear.
you can run spacers but its not ideal or pretty

just a heads up i ran omnis and paul hubs with a goldmedal cog and due to the extra two mm's of random offset paul has the finish wore along the side prematurely due to chainline offset.

yeah to me (i truly don't know any better) but that doesn't sound ideal...
I had originally bought a Surly Fixed/Fixed Hub which has a 42.5mm chain-line with the intension of working with the omomnom. So maybe I shouldn't buy this wheelset?

Hey Scrod. I have this old front wheel with a Velocity Deep V tubular rim, and want to rebuild it with a Deep V clincher rim, re-using the same spokes. Will the ERD be the same so that it uses the same spoke length ?

They're the same.
Another random factoid: you can replace high flange phil with 7600 high flange and use the same spokes assuming you keep the same rim.

Yes, so long as you can clean the thread of any spoke prep that may have been used the first time.
