Another wheel day (and so on).
A customer brought me rims from a manufacturer called Moltorno
called the Grampri 80.
The pair weighs pretty much the same at around 389g.
↑You can't read this unless you already know the rim's name.
The right edge of the label looks more like
"PRIM EO" rather than "PRIX 80".
Built the front wheel.
Suntour Superbe Pro bronze anodized hub
32H full-race laced Italian style.
I didn't use DT Compe spokes
because the required length for this wheel
isn't in the regular stock of Japanese distributors—
it used to be available
so I went with Sapim Race spokes instead.
I'm amazed that an unused example of this bronze hub still exists.
