I can only comment on Archetypes, which are nice to build with, stiff and are a bit wider so the tyre keeps a nice round shape, which does make a difference :)

But there are also Kinlins/DT swiss R460/superstar ones that don't break the bank. R460 you can get from bike24 I believe.

Superstar has silly deals on wheels atm...hard to build for that money.

Re: Superstar
Assembling is part of the fun. Why buy a cheaper well-made wheel when I can bodge one that's a bit wobbly and uneven myself??

R460 is much better price than the Belgiums.

Indeed you can't beat homemade wheels for that bit of satisfaction...and "hm did I do this right?" excitement :)

24/20 is quite low for a first build perhaps?
