Another wheel day (and so on).
A customer brought in a rear wheel built with a Tni 50mm high carbon rim.
The rim is the same one used on the Nomo Lab Wheel No. 2.5.
PowerTap G3 hub, 28H, laced Race/Laser with straight-pull pattern.
It features left-right different diameter lacing,
and in terms of spoke weight distribution alone, it's 85/65% just like a semi-competition pattern.
When I squeeze the non-freehub side, there's a bit of play, but
it's built decently enough (looking down my nose a little).
No lateral trueing issues either.
I could tension it a bit more if I wanted to, but
Since tubular rim with PowerTap hub (mainly for training) was inconvenient,
I rebuilt it with a Nomo Lab Wheel No. 5 rim.
Black semi-competition with 46-spoke lacing and solder joint, silver aluminum nipples.
