A customer brought in a Rovalé Rapide CLX60 for servicing.
This is a WO rim (non-tubeless) with the model name CLX60,
but it appears to be a discontinued model.
The latest CLX model is the tubeless "CLX64,"
and there's also a "CL60" model that comes after the 60.
Due to age and use, the wheel had significant radial runout toward the freewheel side that couldn't be explained by normal wear,
but the tricky part is that even with this rim height, Rovalé uses round-butted spokes.
The spoke key pattern made it difficult to hold while truing, which ate up a lot of time.
(I think I've written about this same issue with Rovalé somewhere before)
I was relieved when I managed to get the wheel perfectly centered right in front of the customer.
