Dumb hub lacing question of the week.
So I'm waiting on delivery of some new rims with DT Swiss 240s straight pull hubs. How does one lace the front hub - do you have to take the end caps off to run the spokes through?
How do you lace this thing?

the end caps just pull off, but you have to get a pretty good grip on them to do it.

Trying anything else would be an interesting exercise.
