Wheels again today (and so on).

Continuing from yesterday.
I'm rebuilding the front wheel on the CL50.

The customer's components aren't Campagnolo,
but the disc rotor is a Campagnolo piece.
I used the same rotor myself,
and I'll write about that eventually.

The rear wheel had such low spoke tension it looked like it was at the bare minimum threshold for the wheel to even be considered a wheel,
but the front wheel was assembled normally.
The rim was offset to the right by about the thickness of a sheet of paper,
but that passes through most manufacturers' quality checks.

All built.
I've reinstalled the tire and rotor
because the customer came to pick it up right away.

Black half CX sprint reverse different-diameter build with black aluminum nipples,
except for blue aluminum nipples on either side of the valve hole.
The customer isn't the original owner of this wheel—
it came with a bike they bought used—
but the front hub bearings had gotten abnormally stiff to rotate, so
I had the customer check the original condition first,
then replaced the bearings.
