Another day working on wheels (and so on).
A customer brought in a Racing Zero rear wheel for work.
The rim had buckled and was deformed, so we decided to replace it.
This is a WO rim, but with a 2WAY-FIT rim, this hole is plugged
Even viewed from the inner side of the rim, you can see the hole goes all the way through. Since even 2WAY-FIT rims have holes drilled and then plugged, it seems like drilling is unavoidable as part of the manufacturing process.
Anyway, got it built up.
