Building carbon rims

Hey
I'm looking to set myself up with some light, Carbon rimmed TT wheels. I've got a good pair of hubs already, and looking for ideas of aftermarket rims that I can build onto them. Anyone got suggestions? I like the look of ENVE but they don't seem to sell in UK.
There are some cheap Chinese ones on ebay but I'm a little nervous of them being strong enough.

Happy riding
Kace

As mathewshotbolt said, Saddleback are the new UK distributor for ENVE so I would imagine that you should be able to get hold of those rims by March-April time.

It may also be worth looking at FFWD rims as I know that you used to be able to purchase those on their own, and as they are still imported by Paligap I can't see for any reason why that isn't still possible. Aside from those two you could look at reynolds rims. Other than that it is taiwanese/Planet X rims.
