I like TB-14's and consider them a pretty fast rim. Set two PR's on the Merckx Pro-SLX on them last summer, so there's that.
Mostly though, I build with Mavic rims- Open Pro, Open Elite and CXP33. Flat and round, build up nicely, reliable as a rock, hardly ever need attention, machined brake surface. Have ridden them at Eroica as well, which is tough on wheels.
Have also had good luck with Kinlin rims, although not sure who sells them these days.

Whatever you wind up with, use nice stainless DB spokes for a better ride. And buy great tires- e.g. Conti GP 5000, Vittoria Graphene, Panaracer GK-they are worth the investment.
