A customer brought in a Xsirium 125 for service.
It's brand new, but the tires were already removed before they came in.
Makes the work so much easier!
(not sure why the text got bigger)


There was basically no runout,
but both front and rear had minor centering issues of about the same degree.
It's strange to say this since I can detect it with the truing gauge,
but I think it's within acceptable factory shipping standards.
I always say I'm not interested in the history of things customers bring in,
but I ended up asking about this one: "This was a overseas internet purchase, right?" (and yes, it was).
I've gotten pretty good at identifying them from the serial number,
so I couldn't help myself asking.
