Built the front wheel for Nomu Lab Wheel #5

Another day of wheel building (and so on).

I built the front wheel for Nomu Lab Wheel #5.

Leaf hub 20H in black CX-RAY with reverse Nupo spoke radial lacing and red aluminum nipples.
I was planning to build the rear wheel too, but I ran out of black Competé spokes, so I couldn't.
The distributor has stock though.
I run out of black CX-RAY fairly often,
but this is probably the first time I've been unable to build a wheel because I ran out of black Competé spokes.
I thought I still had plenty, but lately there's been so much demand for the black semi-Competé spec
that my stock has been depleting rapidly.

So instead I built a front wheel for a different project.

The hub is an older Evo hub 24H, laced with CX-RAY in reverse Nupo radial pattern.
This hub is a customer bring-in,
but looking at the flange holes, I can see traces of it having been tangent laced before.

It's unlikely to get mixed up with my shop's stock, but

just to be safe,
I put a customer bring-in sticker on it anyway.
