Another day of wheels (and so on).
A customer left a Ksyrium Pro Exalith SL with me.
Apparently it got hit by a truck and the wheel was damaged.
There's lateral runout all over the place, so checking the temporary center doesn't make much sense.
If I look carefully, I can probably find a spot that's perfectly centered.
The rim had dents in it.
After I disassembled it, I placed the rim on a glass surface plate,
but it was warped so badly that I could tell just by laying it on the floor.
I replaced the rim.
What was provided was a Ksyrium 125 rim, and the dimensions worked out fine.
I replaced five bent spokes.
There were some cosmetic spokes among them, but
the cosmetic spokes I used for the repair were the same length
but a different color.
I have the rear rim replacement planned as well, but
a difficult problem came up, so
I couldn't get to it today.
