I wonder how many rebuilders overlook the spokes/tension on their aging bike?
Unless the bike has mags of course,I found that by removing stock spokes and replacing them with stainless the handling of the bike (along with a couple of other mods) improved.Together with Acront alloy rims and polished hubs they also look awesome.
 
Yep, I build all my wheels with Buchanan's spokes, and I love using the vintage Akront Drop Center rims... Super tough, lightweight, and looks good too...
