Wheels again today (and so on).
Continuing from yesterday.
The front wheel would work as-is without rebuilding,
but since I'd end up with a spare Record rear hub,
I decided to rebuild the front wheel too
with a White Industries MI5 hub.
The image above shows the wheel after carefully disassembling it,
with only the inpokes transferred over.
All built.
The front wheel's spoke length was nearly identical
before and after the rebuild,
so I reused the same spokes.
32H, all Campagnolo #15 Rocco Italian lacing.
American brands sometimes have
these hubs where the ball race adjustment mechanism is the same as the rear hub,
but if you interpret it as being on the left side,
the hub shell logo ends up reversed.
So this time I built it with the logo upside-down.
