Twisted Spokes?

Hey, I was looking at pictures of old track bikes, and most things (including the no brakes thing) made sense. However there was one thing I don't get. What's the purpose of twisted spokes on track wheels? Oh, and the picture at the bottom of this was ripped from somewhere else on this site a while ago, my apologies for not knowing exactly where. Oh, and it's my first post so please let me know if I crossed any ettiquette lines.[IMG]mike_bike.jpg[/IMG] and since that html for a pic isn't working here's a link that should.http://www.bikeforums.net/attachment...id=30054&stc=1


A black hole is where God tried to divide by (near) zero.
