Bike rear wheel weight breakdown

As an amateur bicycle mechanic, one of the final frontiers I’ve yet to explore was wheel building. After much hesitation, I finally mustered the courage to give it a try. During this process, I realized I had a unique opportunity: to create a detailed breakdown of the weight distribution of my rear wheel (excluding the cassette). For those of you who have spent countless nights pondering the weight composition of a bicycle rear wheel, I’m excited to share my findings.
