Another wheel day (and so on).


A customer brought in an Ultegra C36 front wheel.
When they tried using it, it wouldn't roll at all, so they
wanted it rebuilt...
Wait, it was never even used! (comedy bit)
So they must have come in with absolute conviction that
this wheel wouldn't roll properly without a rebuild?

Rebuilt it.

DT240 hub, 24H, black half CX Sprint rim
64-spoke reverse Italian lacing with spoke wraps.
Reused the nipples from the original wheel.
