What wheels did you end up with? and I guess by the teasers we're going to have to wait for a pic of the completed frame ..
Bit of a left field suggestion for the cranks but have you thought about the Specialites TA Carmina Cranks?
Excellight rims/Hope hubs, all silver. Should be very nice & a lot lighter than my old wheels.
I did think of those a while ago as the look was pretty much perfect & I used a T.A. crankset on one of my touring bikes and really liked it. But I finally ordered a crankset this afternoon and ended up going for something totally different & more modern than I'd originally been intending... http://www.dulight.fr/product_info.php?cPath=91_75_152&products_id=2051
(coming to classifieds soon if it looks totally wrong).
