Wheelbuilding

Recommended wheels builder

Can anyone recommend a good wheel builder, preferably in the London area. I want someone who can do unusual spoking, not just your standard 3X.

New Wheels (for the dry days when they come)

Being a bit new to this road bike stuff i was wondering what you guys' thoughts were towards wheels. Thinking of spending 500 - 600 beer tokens on a new set of hoops - Should i go for sexy factory eg Mavic Ksyrium ES/SL or Campy Shamal or build my own - perhaps King hubs - not sure on rims!! Have built wheels before & they came out great. Advice or opinions please & what rims, spokes & 'nips' Ta very much Simon
