Cole, I totally aggree with you about Joe Young. Since finding him I also only ride Joe's wheels. I had him put some Mavic CXP33 rims on my Camy Record10 hubs a couple years ago and he told me how he doesn't like the Campy (or Shimano) rear hub design because of the angle the spokes come off the hub. Sure enough, last week, 10 miles into a 50 miler, I heard the sound of metal hitting the pavement when a chunk of flange broke off my rear hub, freeing up two spokes. Being totally at one with my bike, I didn't notice until before my next ride when I went to adjust my rear derallieur. So I can't claim to be an expert on ride quality, but Joe's wheels do stay true even with the cattleguard infested roads around Fredericksburg. I've got him building another CXP33 rim on a Hugi 240 hub.
