This is a wheelset I built for my friend, and
it's built with a Rigida rim and a 6600 hub.
Since he's leaving Osaka for about a year and a half for work,
he asked me to do a checkup on the bikes he's taking with him.
The shift cable was corroded, so I replaced it.
As for the wheelset, I just did a bit of truing on both the front and rear wheels.
I built this wheelset about 10 years ago, and I've trued it a few times since then.
You don't see the Rigida brand much anymore these days.
This is a rim that's a replica model of the TVM (TVM Farmfritts) pro team
that existed back then.
Weight-wise it's slightly heavier than a Mavic Open Pro,
but the spoke tension feels stiffer and it doesn't go out of true as easily.
The 6600 hub is the latest model from about 10 years ago, but
since spokes for the pre-built WH-6600 wheels are no longer available,
repairs with "genuine parts" are no longer possible (though I can still fix it).
Anyway, this one has a longer service life in comparison.
Haha! Shimano pre-built wheels are worse than hand-built ones!
It's been a 3x-cross lacing since 10 years ago.
↑That's what I really wanted to write about
It's definitely one of my earliest examples of left/right asymmetrical lacing.
By the way, all Campagnolo throughout.
