Another wheel day (details omitted).
I built a rear wheel using LEW's 32mm high rim.
Evolite hub, 24 holes, black half-competition 4-cross lacing pattern.
I'll do the spoke tension equalization later.
On a different note,
this is a Reynolds 32 (Thirty-Two) sticker.
↑It says "Swirl Lip Generator," but apparently due to patent issues,
this 32mm high rim doesn't have the swirl lip treatment.
Since Reynolds discontinued the Thirty-Two,
orders dried up, and it seems LEW made some pocket change by
removing the patented Reynolds section and selling it as
this rim—a 32mm high rim (confirmed on multiple brands)—
though some later production models did come with the swirl lip.
