A customer brought in a rear wheel from a Racing Speed bike for service.
The centering was spot-on, with almost no lateral runout.
Only two nipples needed even the slightest turn.
I did pull the tire off because I wanted to use a proper dishing gauge,
but in the end it turned out to be unnecessary.
You never know if it'll be a waste of effort until you try, so there's not much I can do about it.
The customer wanted to upgrade from a Shimano 10-speed freehub body to an 11-speed one,
but we were out of stock so I just explained how to do the swap.
Please get one from a nearby shop.
Don't ask me whether "nearby" includes overseas online retailers
We rarely run out of Shimano 11-speed aluminum freehub bodies,
but with Golden Week holidays and such, the suppliers close up (←stop making excuses)
and I dropped the ball. My apologies.
We've got them in stock now.
