Zerolite Track Comp or Sta Tru?
Im trying to decide which wheelset to get for my conversion, either a zerolite track comp ($100) or Sta tru ($110). Which has a better build quality? Im basically looking for a decent fixed wheelset for around $100. Any suggestions welcomed. Thanks in advance.

They're all machine built wheels that will need to be trued/tensioned either right away or after a month of riding (yes, most of Velomine's wheelsets - aside from some of their higher-end sets that specifically say "hand built" in the descriptions - are machine built in FL).
I'd still buy Velomine wheels over those other two. I've ordered a few Sta-Tru wheels as quick fixes for for customers that have been a complete mess when they came out of the box.
