A customer dropped off a Bullet for us to work on.
Since the models with 80mm and 105mm rim heights have been discontinued,
we don't have to bother calling it "Bullet 50" anymore.
Other than a slight centering issue on the rear wheel, there weren't any real problems.
The G3 spoke bundle area does show some radial runout that pulls inward toward the rim interior—
that's pretty much unavoidable when the spokes are under high tension,
but with the Bullet, whether it's because of the rim height and rim stiffness or not,
the amount of radial runout specific to G3 spokes is noticeably less
compared to wheels using the same material spokes like Zonda.
