Combine this feature with a fairly large flange width, and our wheels again achieve the best of both worlds – laterally and torsionally stiff.

well i guess that means that the Ritchey comp wheels on my Cyclocross bike with non bladed spokes, a 20 spoke radial front, and a 24 spoke 2-cross rear are going to explode when I race them again

Not I9's, but don't let the pros know how much their wheels flex. There may be a riot.
