Another day, another wheel (and so on).
A customer brought me the rear wheel from their Nomu Lab Wheel #1.
It's a Reaf hub 24H half-competition four-cross lacing with spoke wraps.
They wanted me to rebuild the wheel using this hub and rim,
but I made sure they understood that overall wheel performance would decrease
before I started work.
I considered leaving this rear wheel as-is
and building a separate rear wheel instead, but
the rim side has a crab laser design that I drew here before at the customer's request
(the customer themselves keeps tape on it so it doesn't fade),
and since it would be a hassle to draw that again
I reused the rim and hub and rebuilt it.
It's a championship/competition four-cross Moron Bon lacing.
By incorporating left-right different diameter, different count lacing, it becomes at least usable to some degree.
