I Built a Front Wheel with Corima's 47mm Carbon Rim

Wheels again today (and so on).

I built a front wheel with a Corima (French wheel manufacturer) 47mm high tubular rim.

Record hub 32-hole CX-RAY in 4-cross Italian lacing pattern.
The motivation was wanting to use this 32-hole hub,
and I went with the Corima rim because it came in 32-hole spec.

(I frequently break the rule, but)radial lacing is prohibited on Record hubs.
The reason I chose 4-cross this time was largely my own preference—
it's easier to wipe down the hub compared to radial lacing
and looks less busy than 6-cross, so I went with 4-cross.

I'll be writing an article soon referencing the actual measured weight
of Corima's recent 12K carbon rims,
so I'm posting the specs here myself without waiting for other sources.
