Another wheel day (and so on).

A customer brought in the rear wheel of a Campagnolo Racing Zero Night (レーシングゼロナイト).
The inner side of the rim is dented, so it needs replacement.

I tied a zip tie to mark which side is front and back.
There's some denting in the rim, but at this level,
if there's no deformation in the brake zone
(meaning it doesn't affect how the brakes feel)
sometimes we can get away with just adjustments.

But one spoke hole over on the opposite side is severely dented,
so it's completely unusable.

Those metal stag beetles, I curse them.

I replaced the rim.


Looking through the valve hole, the hub body orientation
on the non-freebody side is at 7 o'clock, so there are 7 positions to choose from,
but I went with this one for logo alignment.

Two spokes were bent, so I replaced them.

One horizontal mark is on the freebody side, and

it's bent more in the front-to-back direction,

and there's an impact mark right where the deformation is.

Three vertical marks are on the non-freebody side, and

it's bent more in the side-to-side direction,

and this one also had an impact mark.
