I'm not sure if the title captures it quite right, but
I'm busily building wheels so that I can have days when I don't build wheels.
So today it's wheels again (and so on).
But first.
The rear 20H hub hasn't arrived yet, but to avoid the situation where the rim is gone by the time the hub comes in,
I've ordered a few extra rims for the Nomu Lab Wheel No. 3.
For a customer's order, I built the 24H rear wheel for the Nomu Lab Wheel No. 3.
For the rear wheel, CX is recommended for 20H and CX-RAY for 24H,
but this time I built it with CX-RAY.
The customer wanted the sticker removed, so I peeled it off before assembly.
The Tni 24H rear hub is also running low in stock.
I received an order for the high-strength version of the Nomu Lab Wheel No. 1.
In that sense, this might be the toughest we've ever built.
The front wheel is 28H. This is the first time with No. 1 that I built the front wheel with tangent lacing.
The rear is 32H.
I did 48-spoke lacing.
Since the rim height is 30mm, the spoke length on the 8-spoke non-freewheel side
becomes standard too. With no supply issues for spokes,
I went with 48-spoke instead of 46-spoke lacing.
It's hard to tell in the photo, but only the freewheel side has brass nipples.
I built a wheel with a customer's brought-in rim.
A rare spec: 85mm rim height carbon rim with 36H.
I built it with a Shimano Sora track hub.
Since it's a fixed/free cog, I built it in JIS lacing so it can be used on both sides.
