Today it's wheels again (and so on).
Built the rear wheel with the
CX22 rim, which now has black anodizing all the way to the rim sides.
Revo Disc hub, 24H, half-comp four-cross JIS lacing
with black aluminum nipples.
I'll do the spoke truing later.
These front and rear wheels were ordered directly by a customer
at a cyclocross event last season,
and they said "just get them built by the time next season starts,"
but time flies, and when you factor in the time to mount tires,
things got pretty tight timing-wise.
The customer is already using another wheel I built
for cyclocross,
and they say "it rolls faster than a Bora (Bora wheelset)."
Not to be modest, but for cyclocross rather than
high-speed road racing,
the Bora might actually roll better.
Not to brag, but I think the responsiveness when you put the power down
is better than the Bora.
