The number, type, and shape of spokes influences the wheels weight and aerodynamics. To make the wheels stronger with more spokes and/or round spokes will also cost you in aero drag.
What you say would be true though for wheels like discs and tri spokes. PK |

Fairwheel has a Flickr site, and some new tubular tandem wheels were just posted in their gallery. This may be the wheels Jason refers to, although the spokes are Sapim CX.

The front is a King Classic hub 28h also laced 3x with cx-speed spokes. The cx-speed spokes are stiffer and stronger version on the cx-ray. http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6198/...dc561c15_z.jpg Chris King 145mm Tandem disc hub Cool finned disc mount http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6020/...d6f50934_z.jpg Chris King 145mm Tandem disc rear hub, Enve 45mm tubular rim and Sapim cx-speed spokes. http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6087/...0ebc40cf_z.jpg Chris King Classic front hub, Enve 45mm tubular rim and Sapim cx-speed spokes. Nice wheels, we could not ride them, but nice none the less. I hope the owners get many trouble free miles from them. PK |
