Might be a daft question...
« on: September 29, 2011, 09:40 PM »
... i'm thinking of going against my better judgement and opting for spoked rims for my latest hot streak build.
Question is, which do you prefer 36 or 48 spokes  :-\
Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.

There is not a huge difference in strength :daumenhoch:  I use 36 spokes on my bikes

36, you have a far wider choice of hubs.

I intend to do alot of park stuff on them but not sure i like how cluttered the 48's look to the 36's  :-\

Just run decent modern higher pressure tyres on them and 36's will be fine ;-)
Still limping......
