Nosh!
"Also have to order the titanium spokes yet."
What brand are you going? DT, Pillar, Marwi, Union?
I got a set of gold Ti spokes (14gauge DT) from Colorado Cyclist. They were 1.80$ per spoke instead of the usual 3$. They have plain Ti DT spokes but in a limited size (252, and 259mm)
They also have Union bladed Ti spokes for 0.99$ per spoke in a wide array of lengths. (don't know how well those would work on a disc wheel) but the price is great. I guess not many people want to deal with Ti spokes, hence the discounts.
