I have one friend who races on a set built by Colorado; however, for the
best hand built wheels available, Sally is the person.  While you may pay
a bit more to get wheels locally, that is at the Magic Spoke, in the long
run it is worth it.  One thing you don't want to be cheap about are your
wheels.  They will pay for themselves in the long run.  Besides, you're
helping support a small local business.  Not such a bad idea.  What do you
see coming from either of these companies in the way of helping our local
racing/riding environment.
