I am in the process of having a fabulous custom mixte, low trail, front loader, commuter made. I put the wheels together mystelf, he front using a Schmidt dynohub, and the rear using a White Industries eccentric. All the mod-cons. And I'll be using Hetres on it, at least in the summer when I can see the glass and avoid it. Life is short and I am on the bike daily.
I met an older gentleman on the bike path recently and he apparently has a similar attitude. As recently as 2002 he had a Dursley-Pedersen made for him - new! But hey, whatever gets the cogs going!
