Ghisallo still makes wood wheels in tubular and clincher, but clincher have PSI limitations. Wood be cool to see more modern bikes with wood wheels.

One day, some eccentric Scandinavian from near the arctic circle would carve a bike out of sea ice and ride it naked across a frozen lake........

I have no pics of my Ti bike, but it was a Tesch, with no decals whatsoever.
Otherwise, they're pretty much C&V:
Aluminum-'84 Klein
Steel-'88 Ironman
Carbon-'89 Carbon-R
