a) give to me £10 per wheel

Cheers rusty, If so, would you recommend any particular hubs and rims I can get hold of cheaply...

that slightly pushes me over my price point dogsballs, take £5?

your budget was 25 for a bike shop to build, how is 10 too high from dogs?
A) Buy bits, build yourself.

Ah, misunderstanding, that would indeed be a very good deal (sorry dogs)! unfortunatly I'm up in Nottingham, would make things tricky.

I did think these looked a good deal, but I suppose I could make them up cheaper.. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=28614

I'm liking the outspoken cycles site! Miche Primato vs Miche Primato LF? I'm erring on the cheaper set, my dropouts are 130mm but I think I could get 120mm in! and 42mm chainline should be about right..

10mm is big difference and you'll have issues with hub slipping in the dropouts. From the site:
We've featured a well-balanced range of wheels that aims to appeal to all users, whether beginner or professional, and by honing in on a small selection we can keep prices low. However, we know how personal this decision is, so if we haven't listed what you're after, drop us a line and we'll quote you a price as long as our suppliers can provide the components.
I suggest using a 130mm hub and mavic open pros are an excellent value, quality rim

Right, I've emailed the shop, we'll see if they have anything in 130mm.
Thanks for your advice Broker!

Pete at Outspoken is off on a 6 month ride to Kenya soon so they are closing the shop down whilst he's away. They stopped taking orders for wheels yesterday I think - that's what their home page says at least;

Between the Miche Pistard and The Navigator Pista (both the same price from ribble) what should one go for?
Well, i've got the frame, the cranks BB, stem handle bars, and think I've located the right forks. I'm now thinking wheels.
a) purchase hubs spokes and rims tires and tubes - build up for £25 at bike shop
b) purchase otp set (any suggestions £120 range)
c) buy some off ebay/here
Not sure which will give me best value for a light set of wheels.
Any suggestions?
Cheers.toby
