Another day with wheels (and so on).
I received a wheel from a customer built with an SES (Smart Envi System) 2.2
tubeless-ready rim.
Starting with the front wheel.
They wanted it rebuilt with an SES 4.5 tubular rim,
and the reason they didn't want me to build a separate 4.5 rim wheel
is because they want to reuse the Envi carbon hub.
There's a mysterious sticker on it, which is because
I previously rebuilt the rear wheel of this
from all CX-RAY to half Champion spokes.
I only inspected the front wheel, but the spokes were clearly too long.
When I disassembled it, I found that thread-locking compound hadn br/>not been applied to the spoke threads.
Got it built.
Same as the original wheel—black CX-RAY half Champion radial lacing,
but the length is completely different, so these are brand new spokes.
