Thnx for the help on this, it'll have me in a good place of being almost bomb proof bike for next season!

Don't forget the cost of spoke when building a wheel. The old ones are likely to not be the same size as the ones for the new rim. If you use the incorrect size of spoke length, then tension will be wrong - at best. Handbuilt wheels are always stronger than machine built ones.
