Today's another wheel day (and so on).
Built the rear wheel for Nomu Lab Wheel No. 5.
Evolite hub, 24H, semi-comp 4-cross lacing pattern
with red aluminum nipples.
I'll do the spoke wrapping later.
Nomu Lab Wheels have a prototype series that doesn't make it onto the blog here. Wheels built with XR200/AL22 rims generally become T series (the pattern's a secret), and one particular T series wheel—T243—has a front wheel with silver spokes and red nipples. Since I'm building it as a matching set to hand off to a customer, regardless of what they might have wanted, the rear wheel ended up with silver spokes and red nipples too.
By the way, both wheels on my commuter and training bike are V series. To be specific, the front is V221 and the rear is V282.
