Hi Mark,

Yes I saw the thread previously.  So i will have to make a decision soon! Thanks again

I got the rim today, it had been delivered to my house on the 24th, 5 days after the seller had posted it, I wasn't in and the delivery person failed to post a card saying that he had taken it to my local post office (idiot), I contacted the seller yesterday, they gave me the tracking number which led me to it's whereabouts, all's well that ends well  :)

Hi Mark,

Can I ask what Central wheels are charging I take it that you bought the rims then sent the hubs and rims to them for lacing with stainless spokes?

MarkCR750:
£126 or £136 per wheel with stainless butted spokes (I can't remember exactly), I didn't think that was too bad really, I was going to have a go at lacing them myself but the spokes and nipples would have cost about £70 per wheel so it wasn't really worth the hassle.

Got my front wheel this morning, Central wheels have done a great job, it was £136 with polished stainless single butted spokes and plated brass nipples, I had them fit a tyre (Avon Roadrider) this took it to £207, (the rim cost £75 ebay).
