Wheels again today (et cetera).
Built the rear wheel to match
the front wheel with the XR-19W rim I assembled the other day.
Shimano Sora Pro large flange 126mm width
Freewheel hub 32H
Built half-comp with 24-spoke radial lacing and gold aluminum nipples.
I'll do the spoke tension later.
With the freewheel hub, you screw on
a multi-speed freewheel body to this threaded section,
and some people might think it looks similar to
SRAM's XD/XDR freebody.
That's what I'd call learning from the past.
The stated weight for this rim is 400g according to
Japanese distributor specs,
though the manufacturer's website says 410g.
Following the convention of measuring actual weight
when using matching rims with the same spoke count on both wheels,
I weighed them and found
both rims deviated from the stated weight,
and they differed from each other in opposite directions.
Hmm, this is remarkable.
It seems that one didn't make a move,
so it won't get its turn this time.
