However, I love building them and I know they are build right.

Last time, I got a set of wheels out of the box, took them apart and rebuilt them.

It's fun to build your own bits.

Scotty,
I am about to build another wheelset, still deciding between using CXP33 or stay with Open pros.

I am looking for a "cheaper source" of spokes and nipples. Would you mind sharing your source?

Regards
Thomas
