i already told you. but you want to prove me wrong, so go get yourself
some hubs, a metallurgical microscope, and do some metallography. post
the pics for us all to see! it'll cost you about $15 for the cheapest
hub, the most likely candidate.

How much does the spoke work harden during spoke squeezing?

why not use your, er, "ability" to calculate meyer hardness to find out?

meyer hardness is for the projected area of the impression, not

No kidding. But Meyer (not "meyer") hardness does not typically
change with indentation depth for a work hardened material, but does
change with indentation depth for an annealed or normalized material.

A spoke is too small to test for hardness by Meyer or Brinell methods,

likely be the best choice for a small, round section such as a spoke.

jim beam makes progress very, very slowly. When you prove him wrong on
cast hubs, he tries to change the argument to cast handlebars - or
perhaps to the hubs he wants you to buy. Or to the components on your
