How come so few spokes?

Not actually sure....

Crap, now I have to take a pic of mine...   ;)

Nice bike, though.  [thumbsup] Mine looked like that before the mods, just different color.

Thanks.

Not a big fan of the color, but I know someone who can change that.   ;)

I did some other sundry items for it too...

brake levers, handlebar tubes...all carbon all two toned...

and shipped o/night to Hong Kong.

The shipping was as much as the work.

As far as the spokes go, the lacing pattern and the bladed shape give strength to the wheel, but I'm sure quite what the physics of it are...

If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I figure it'll be a couple hundred.  Or there abouts.
