2. Spoke - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoke

   For example, a 32 spoke wheel has 16 spokes per side, 360° divided by 16 equals 22.5°. Multiply 22.5° ("angle between adjacent flange holes") by the number of crossings to get the angle a —if 3-crosses, the 32 spoke wheel has an angle a of 67.5°.

3. Wire wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_wheel

   Wire wheels, wire-spoked wheels, tension-spoked wheels, or "suspension" wheels are wheels whose rims connect to their hubs by wire spokes. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Although these wires are considerably stiffer than a similar diameter wire rope , they function mechanically the same as tensioned flexible wires, keeping the rim true while supporting ...

4. Wheelbuilding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheelbuilding

   For a normal wheel size and spoke count, only the latter is suitable for a wheel that has to transmit torque from the hub to the rim, as with rear wheels or hub brakes. This rule is occasionally broken where a very large number of spokes is used, or the wheel is unusually small in diameter, either of which reduces the amount of increased ...

5. Wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel

   The hub is the center of the wheel, and typically houses a bearing, and is where the spokes meet. A hubless wheel (also known as a rim-rider or centerless wheel) is a type of wheel with no center hub. More specifically, the hub is actually almost as big as the wheel itself. The axle is hollow, following the wheel at very close tolerances.

6. Wheelwright - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheelwright

   The basic parts of a wooden wheel are nave (or hub), spokes, felloes (felly) and tyre (tire). [3] [4] The nave is the central block of the wheel. In a wooden-spoked wheel, the nave acts as the hub. One end of each spoke is set into the nave in a process called tennoning. In older wheels, the nave had a 6-inch sleeve that fit over the axle to ...

   The first hollow-spoke wheel was also developed by BBS, in collaboration with Porsche and Kuka, in 2000. [7] Many of the design elements that BBS has developed and popularized over the years have gone on to be replicated in the automotive and aftermarket industry, such as stepped- lip barrels, Y-shaped spokes, colored center caps , and lug covers.
