I built Nomu Lab Wheel #1 using a White Industries T11 hub.

20H CX-RAY inpoke radial lacing.

Not on every model, but
White hubs often have flanges that curve
toward the rim.

They probably didn't design it with this in mind, but this hub might actually be suited for inpoke lacing.

There's a hole at the end of the hub shell for accessing the set screw
that secures the end nut with a tool.
On a rear hub, this hole must structurally be placed on the anti-freewheel side,
so if we treat the side with this hole as the "assumed left side" on a front hub as well...

On the older H2 front hub (top image), the logo orientation on the hub shell is reversed.
On the current T11 front hub, this was changed so the logo reads in the correct direction.
This isn't random or a mistake—both versions are consistently designed this way.
(On rear hubs, the logo reads correctly regardless of era)

For hubs with disc brake mounts, the side with the disc mount
is definitively the left side, not just "assumed" to be.
On the current models, both front and rear have the disc mount on the left side,
which means the logo reads correctly in both cases.
