Today it's wheels again (and so on).
I built Nomu Lab Wheel #2.
Front wheel is Aerolite hub 20H CX-RAY reverse aero spokes radial laced,
Rear wheel is Aerolite hub 24H semi-comp 4-cross laced.
I'll do the truing later.
Most wheels have delivery dates at the end of February and early March,
and lately it feels like I'm just building wheels non-stop,
but that's because of the Ibuki Mountain Hillclimb.
About 5% of the wheels on participants in Ibuki
might be wheels I built,
but in recent years the denominator (total number of participants) is so large that we might not reach 5%.
Since this happens every year, I'm starting to get a sense of it—
・Before Ibuki Mountain / Spring Maishima
・Before Mt. Norikura
・Before Tour de Okinawa / cyclo season start
are particularly busy, and in addition to that, there are last-minute requests before Golden Week and O-bon vacation too.
In other words, we're basically busy all year round.
Fortunately, February has 31 days (Hinamatsuri),
so I should be able to make February's orders in time.
