Another day with wheels (and so on)... but first.
The 660 hub (that's what we call it on this blog)
—the Tni Six60 hub—
recently had a spec change.
Just to note: I'm using a front hub this time,
but the model name comes from the rear hub's free body having six pawls
and the ratchet on the hub shell having 60 teeth,
so there's actually no naming basis tied to the front hub spec.
The embossed Tni logo that used to be raised in the center of the hub shell
is now gone,
and instead they've started including a sticker.
I'm careful not to show it in the photos above,
but there's a laser-engraved serial number on the outside of one flange of the hub shell.
Since that's on the left side on the rear hub,
the front hub uses the same convention—that's the justification for calling it "left."
Built the front wheel for Nomu Lab Wheel #5.
660 hub, 20H, CX-RAY outpoke radial lacing.
