Built another wheel today.
↑Actually, I didn't build this one today — I received the order the day before yesterday
and built this wheel the day before yesterday.
They happened to see the article from the day before yesterday about "Front No. 1 SL & Rear No. 5"
and thought "peeling the stickers looks cool."
With all models except No. 2, there isn't much adhesive residue left, so peeling isn't a problem.
A customer who had their wheel shipped to a different region emailed me saying "the speed at which you build wheels is extraordinary,"
but honestly, it's just because the shop is slow.
Another customer who also had theirs shipped from afar wrote:
"Received the wheel(my wife did).
I never expected it to ship this fast,
and thanks to you, my standing at home is on par with Jack Bauer!"
They said they were shocked that I could build both front and rear wheels in 2-3 hours,
since I shipped it the same evening they transferred the payment.
Though in this case, the front wheel was already built.
Even if it wasn't, I could have done it.
Because the shop is slow.
So what I built today was a 24H front, 28H rear No. 1 SL.
Both front and rear have 4 more spokes than the standard off-the-shelf version.
Aero spokes are difficult to lace.
But I did it properly.
Four-cross lacing is probably getting old by now,
but a 28H four-cross pattern might be a bit unusual.
