Another day, another wheel (and so on).
Continuing from yesterday.
I built a rear wheel with a SUB1 rim.
With an ONYX Vesper hub 24H black semi-comp 4-cross lacing
and dark blue aluminum nipples.
I'll do the spoke twisting later.
↑Going back in time a bit, here's the rim weight by itself
↑The wheel weight
Front and rear wheels combined came to 1183g,
which is definitely not what you'd call SUB1 weight,
but the unique freewheel body features you won't find on other manufacturers' hubs
can't really be quantified in numbers. If I only cared about raw lightness,
I could just build it with all CX-RAY spokes,
and if I wanted to justify radial lacing on the non-drive side in some way,
I could do 2:1 lacing like their complete wheel version does,
but with equal spoke count on both sides,
I think this is the optimal solution.
