Custom-Length Spokes: Weaker?
Kinlin niobium rims, Edge or Reynolds carbon.
The reason for bending the spoke is to a) transfer the load to the thick part of the spoke outside the threaded area (never use straight gauge), and b) reduce the load at the rim bed... ie have the nipple distribute a more even load at the rim surface. |
