Well at least none of you align all the nuts and bolts on your bike so they're horizontal, with the writing the right way up (I hope...). Classic car owners are an odd bunch :)

This should be set up so the rim stickers read properly from the drive side of the bike at the same time.l Can't remember what the title of the book was, but it was pretty decent. It may be covered in "The Bicycle Wheel." Also, if you look through the stem hole in the rim, you should be able to read the hub label. This is just a matter of pride of the wheel builder, I've done it for all but my first wheel. |
I didn't do it for my first wheel, and was so obsessed with doing it "right" I tore the wheel down and relaced it so the label on the hub was lined up with the stem hole.
