I built a front wheel using a customer's spare hub.
The customer wanted me to build wheels for their commuter hybrid bike.
They already had a hub on hand, so I was asked to do the wheel build,
with the specifications being 36 holes for the front and 32 holes for the rear, with a slightly wider rim.
If both front and rear were 32 holes, I'd go with the Tuni CX28,
but since one side is 36 holes, I went with the ALEXRIMS DM18.
There's a brake zone that becomes unnecessary when using disc brakes,
and since keeping the rim cost down was also a requirement, this rim worked out perfectly.
HB-M765 36 holes, black Campolo four-cross reverse Italian lacing with blue aluminum nipples.
