Rebuilt.

Shot the hub shell from the Rovar-branded side.
Changed the spokes on the left side (rotor boss side)
to CX Sprint.
Will do the truing later.

Yesterday I said the Alpinist CL rim is
the same as the CLX except for the spoke hole count.
The basis for saying that with certainty
requires that the rim's measured weight be similar,
and yes, I've confirmed that too.
If asked about the Alpinist CLX rim weight,
I'd answer 347g,
but this is based on experience from actually weighing
a reasonable number of rims,
not the manufacturer's stated specs.
This CL's front and rear rims happened to fall
around 347g,
but I'm not going to tell you that.
↑ugh, what a jerk

Sorry for the wait! Please check out this image!
By the way, this time I was lazy and just added to
the Rovar appearance from last time, so please don't mind!
