Wheels again today (and so on).
I built a rear wheel using the Pashente Forza C W30 rim.
Pashente has an aluminum rim with the model name Forza,
and the carbon rim version is the Forza C, with a rim height of 30mm.
The rim side has "FORZA-C" written on it.
The wide rim version of this Forza C is
today's Forza C W30 rim,
and the marking on the rim side reads "FORZA W30"
with the "–C" omitted.
W30 means the rim width is 30mm,
but this refers to the external width, with the nominal internal/external widths being 24/29.4mm.
With the regular Forza C model,
it's 21.3/26.6mm, though this is also technically a wide rim.
The rim diameter comes in 700C and 650B, but today's rim is 700C
and the stated weight is 365g ±15g for both the W30 and the regular version.
↑Actual measured weight.
For the rim width, it's extremely lightweight.
There was a note saying 374g,
but the other rim measured 376g on our shop scale,
with a note of 375g. Whether the weight of the note tape straddled the 1g difference,
or if the note was affixed right at the equator—unclear.
Hookless rim, tubeless tire only.
DT 180 straight spoke disc hub, 24H
Black half-champion, forced left/right two-cross lacing.
The final crosses are woven on both sides.
The non-drive side tie-ins will be done later.
