pondering parts -- advice?

I am enjoying the downtime at the end of my racing season, and already pondering parts upgrade for next year (mostly because my wheels are SHOT).

On a budget, so no Chris King for me. I welcome suggestions for a dedicated singlespeed cassette hubset (135 spacing in rear) and clincher rims (did I mention I'm on a budget? Not ready for tubulars yets, either) that would do good double-duty for short-track AND 'cross. I MAY be going to 700c next year but it's not definite yet, so feel free to suggest 26" rims as well. Looking now and plan to build up my new wheels by March or April.

Thanks --Beth
