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.
