A bicycle rim comprises a radially outer peripheral part, a radially inner peripheral part, at least one sidewall, and at least one cover member. The at least one side wall radially extends between the radially outer peripheral part and the radially inner peripheral part. The at least one side wall comprises at least one opening. The at least one cover member covers the at least one opening, and the at least one cover member comprises a metallic material.

A bicycle wheel spinner which is quickly and easily released from a hub and has an inner ring formed segments, with blades protruding from each segment. The segments each mount a roller wheel riding in a groove in a supporting hub. The segments are releasably fixed together in the groove. The spinner can be quickly removed by disassembling the inner ring segments. A locking mechanism allows the spinner to be locked to the hub or released to rotate independently.

Accessories for improving aerodynamic characteristics of wheels with an outer rim configured to operatively couple with a tire; an inner rim configured to be located radially inward of the outer rim at a radial distance away from a wheel hub; an adaptable circumferential membrane, configured to operatively couple to both the inner rim and the outer rim, being structurally configured to adapt to an external force and change shape when subject to the external forces; and an attachment assembly configured to operatively couple the adaptable circumferential membrane to the outer rim and the inner rim as an overlay to wheel structural elements coupling the hub to the tire. The adaptable circumferential membrane with at least one air engaging flexible and aerodynamic surface configured to deform under the external force and to return to a neutral position when the external force is no longer present.

A saddle-ride vehicle includes: a wheel having a hub and supported by an axle; a brake disc attached to the hub; a brake caliper capable of clamping the brake disc; and a wheel cover held between the hub and the brake disc and covering a side surface of the wheel. The wheel cover is formed larger than the brake disc and forms a gap with the wheel at an outer peripheral end, and the wheel cover is provided with vent holes penetrating the cover surface in a direction of the axle.

The present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing a bicycle wheel. A fairing is positioned relative to a base rim that comprises a plurality of anchor holes. A hub is positioned in the central opening and a plurality of spokes inserted into the hub. A spoke is fed from a first side of the fairing to a second side of the fairing through a respective spoke access opening in the fairing. The fairing is pulled back from the base rim to provide a work opening and the spoke manipulated from the second side of the fairing via the work opening to guide the first spoke to a respective anchor opening in the base rim. The spoke is attached to the base rim using a respective spoke nipple. The outer portion of the fairing is bonded to the base rim to create a deep aerodynamic rim.
