Built Nomu Lab Wheel No. 5 with a PowerTap Hub

Another day, another wheel (and so on...).

A customer entrusted me with a PowerTap hub.
32H.
It shows signs of previous assembly, so it's not brand new, but the condition is excellent.

During the rebuild, I'm guessing the freebody was replaced with a new Shimano 11-speed freebody,
and since the freebody is so clean,
you can't tell the hub has been used at all at first glance.

Built it up.
Since I used an XR200 rim, this is Nomu Lab Wheel No. 5.

Built with full Campagnolo 48-spoke Italian cross lacing.
I write "Italian cross" every time for a specific reason—
because this hub was previously laced non-Italian, and now I've redone it Italian-style. Ha ha ha.

The previous non-Italian lacing wasn't reverse Italian or JIS lacing, but ratherYou can tell from the assembly marks on the flange holes.

Since the flange is larger than on G3 hubs, the spoke heads don't interfere
too much with the adjacent spokes.

As I always say, there's something special about a shiny silver hub.
