Current Projects chat and miscellany

I got knocked off my bike about a month ago, and as a result both the bike and my teeth are a bit wonky. Needed a replacement asap so went to my bike shop of choice and ordered an Edwardes Special, effectively a rebadged Dolan track champ. I'm a one of those weird lycra roadie types most of the time and the thought of going fixed proper is still a bit daunting to me, especially because my commute is a bit sketchy in places, so I committed sacrilege and got it drilled for a rear brake. Sorry about that, Clark at Edwardes wasn't too happy either.
I chucked on a few bits I had lying around, but everything else is the cheapest possible to get me on the road quick.
Anyway, a month later, here it is. It's a bit of a mess, component wise, and as it's my first non-OTP I have no clue what to stick on the sodding thing. Wheels need some love, I like the look of H+Son SL42 rims in black, but have no idea what's a good hub to lace them to. And a black crank set would be nice too. What would you do if it was yours?

I wouldn't get H+Son rims thats for sure. If you're a roadie then you probably have as a good an idea as to what are good and bad rims. Failsafe is always OpenPro's but they're kinda plain looking (which is good in my book). Unless you specifically were looking to build a HHSB but judging by your current set up you aren't.

Also at 615 grams the H+Son rims are pretty heavy (Open Pro's are around 450g) and of course rotational weight is way worse than non-rotational.

I don't know a great deal about Track hubs. I just built a wheel to a System Ex hub which is cheap but not bad for the money (£25, not too heavy, sealed bearings).

Back brakes are all good. Its probably good practice to continue to use it if you're more used to road bikes and your main focus is there.
