Mate's rim cracked (LOL) and so he needs a replacement rear wheel:
-700C road disc rim
-12x142 hub
- let's say 32h, it's London used
- 10/11spd road freehub
- factory built
- online available
- 6bolt although could just adapt CL if one is suitable
Any suggestions? Shimano and Mavic Aksium stuff all seems to be lower spoke counts, everything else starts to get a bit spendy. Budget = cheapish. The whole bike is <£1k so 200-250 maybe?

Top end of budget but if they want something reliable, you won't get better than the pro4 hubs with 32 DB spokes:
