What is the name of this lacing
so there's a picture i found..
http://macaframaproductions.com/bios...ics/keo_01.jpg And I think that the lacing done on the front wheel is pretty rad. It doesn't look like it's a special rim, just looks like a deep v? Maybe i'm stupid, I didn't really know how to search for this as I don't know the name of this kind of lacing.. thanks for the help |
:cry:
|
maybe you should share the picture with us as well.

It's a folding rim for commuting by bus/train. Don't know who makes 'em, though.

Can't the tube get pinched at each of those ends that fold? Awesome idea though.

so to answer the op's question, it's the front from the velocity spartacus wheelset. it is just a deep v rim, but it's specially drilled for that wheelset, you can't just lace up a regular deep v like that. the hub is also specially designed for that lacing pattern, so you can't just lace up a regular hub like that either. very proprietary.
thank you for answering the question! to someone who said they were feeling it, it's supposedly Keo Curry's newest bike as found on macaframaproductions.com |
