Another day of wheels (and so on).
I built the front wheel for Nomu Lab Wheel #5 using a Gokiso hub.
Gokiso hub, 32H, CX-RAY four-cross Italian lacing pattern.
The customer initially wanted radial lacing,
but with a front wheel of 32H or higher, radial lacing makes it difficult to clean the hub,
and there's a tendency for a single spoke to develop a problem where the nipple loosens and tension drops.
So I went with tangent lacing instead.
