  1. My wheel set has arrived. These were ordered from Colorado Cyclist and
    UPS dropped them today. Shimano Ultegra hub set, Mavic Open Pro rims,
    both at 32 holes, DT Stainless 15/14 gage double butted spokes, laced 3
    cross. These should be a bit tougher that the 16 spoke wheels I broke
    a spoke on.

    And before some ask why not fix the old one: parts, including spokes,
    are no longer available for the Gipiemme Grecal Parade hubs/rims that
    were stock on my 03 Cannondale.

    I think you made a wise decision. Colorado Cyclist built my
    Ultegra/Mavic wheels and I haven't had to touch a spoke in over three
    years. I'm 225# and live on a pretty rough gravel road.
