I dont see 10mm front axles very often and when I have it was with pretty cheap wheels.

You just had a meltdown and said you were buying a new wheelset, now you're saying you'll use your old ugly hub. Which is it?

Just bring your bike into your local bike co-op and have them fit a set of 700c wheelset to see if they'll work with your frame and fork. You could also just use a set of 650c wheelset.

You have a fairly nice frame. If you can save up just over $100 there are some good wheelsets available, like these at Velomine

That was a lot of freaking out over nothing.

I wish you didn't paint the frame.

That's not very nice. Often deforms bars a bit.
