This is a separate job from my previous post.


A customer dropped off an R-SYS SLR with me.
It's part of a component swap job, not just wheel work,
but since the shop they bought it from isn't exactly trustworthy, they wanted a full inspection.


One of the carbon spokes was all sticky with some fluorescent orange stuff on it.
According to his sister, they'd applied a cutting sheet to match the frame color
and this was the residue left after peeling it off.
A quick wipe with a parts cleaner-soaked cloth got it clean.



The front wheel was perfectly centered with virtually no runout,
but the rear wheel was significantly off-center.
If the rim had been dished toward the non-freewheel side, I could've just tightened the freewheel side,
but it's dished toward the freewheel side, so I can't loosen the freewheel side to center it
(well, for minor adjustments like a single sheet of paper thickness, that would work).
I need to remove the drive ring and do most of the adjustment on the non-freewheel side.
