I've ordered some '40th anniversary' wheels, in readiness for life beginning in early May.
Went for a 48h rear and 8h front, bladed spokes and alu on the front in silver, extra strong fat spokes with brass in black on the rear. Tubular 1000mm depth front for aero gains, and a box section alu rear clincher with bonded on magnesium brake surface. Proprietary straight pull radial on the front with an oversize alu axle, traditional 4x on the rear with a cro-mo axle with carbon weave dustcaps.
Thanks for all the input - hopefully I've satisfied everyone's sensibilities. I just need to source some fluorescent pink tyres now.
