Parts wise, Son front, bitex or hope rear, Kinlin XR31 if you're more on the thinner tyre (I ride mine with 40c) with occasional widerboys or a TL23 if your mostly wideboys. 28 spokes is definitely plenty on the XR31s, I'd imagine the same goes for the TL23s. Let your builder order spokes after measuring.
cheers for this and your other comment. Gone for (pending rims being available) Son front, hope rear, velocity cliff hanger rims, sapim race spokes, brass nipples, 32H I believe from a LBS
