Another day, another wheel (et cetera).
A customer brought in the rear wheel of their Nomunlab Wheel #5 for work.
It's a full CX-RAY 46-spoke laced wheel with spoke tensions,
but it's developed some runout and they wanted me to take a look at it.
Apparently they lent it to someone, and when it came back it was seriously out of true.
One glance told me the rim was bent badly enough that
there was no way to straighten it, so...
I transferred the hub from the old rim to a new one.
Built up and ready.
Beyond just the rim, I replaced all the nipples as well.
