Any wheelbuilders here like to line up the logos on hubs so they're visible through the valve hole when the spokes are tensioned? Feels pretty awesome right? :D

Its how I build them. Unless its a 36h and a few others, they just don't line up right

You also have to be able to read the logo while sitting on the bike.

I like to drill a hole through the tube and tire too so that you can still read the hub label through the stem hole after mounting tires. Otherwise, you can only get a side view around the spokes.
