Second shipment arrived home.
There are 3 files that include the first hub-wheel-front left wheel arms group.
I start with the assembly of the wheel group only (file 3) ... quite simple and elementary.
But the defects and the shortcomings are quite accentuated.
This element is so visible and characteristic that left like this it is not correct and very bare.




And now let's start with the "shopping list of defects/shortcomings"
- oversized tire shoulder ribs
- incorrectly shaped lenticular funnel
- lenticular color too opaque
- lenticular support ring details too evident
- no tire valve
- no barcode labels on tire shoulder
- no writing on tire shoulders
- no balancing weight on external lip
- no Dutch flag sticker on external lip
- no wear holes on tire footprint
as desired: no tread wear and rim bead too new, in many photos and races it is marked.
Redoing the lenticular and the valve is not a problem, now I have to decide (but I think without even thinking too much) to redo the tire as well.
I will wait for the decal until the end because I think there will be a lot of integration to do.
