For trade: Lew front wheel, 700c, tall section, 495 grams

It's the higher-end Lew that I wish to trade (I think it is the Sydney- I got rid of the labels). It's got a White Industries LTA hub, 16 spokes, and it is INSANELY lightweight. It has well under 1000 miles on it, as it has been race-only with a few training sessions on it.

What I am looking for is a shallower-section wheel of the same quality. This may be a difficult proposition, but I am going to make it anyway. I would like something mid-V that is of the same weight or lighter than this.

What I would consider:

1) Lew mid-V that is on the top-end (their top end shallow wheel weighed something like 450 grams for a front).

2) Zipp 303 that has 24 spokes or fewer, with a hub that is newer than 2001.

3) Nimble Fly with a good hub, 24 or fewer spokes, and a bit of cash.

4) Corima Winium with 24 spokes or fewer.

This Lew retailed for a BUNCH of money. I don't expect to get every dime out of it (or half of it, for that matter), but I just want to get something of similar quality and weight in a shallower rim depth. It is devoid of any Lew labels, but the worst that will happen is that it is confused with a new Reynolds wheel.
