The invention relates to a drive wheel for a bike, comprising a rim which is fastened to a hub by means of a plurality of spokes, wherein the spokes are made of reinforcing fibers embedded in resin, the reinforcing fibers of a spoke extending from a first fastening portion at the rim to a second fastening portion offset against the former in the circumferential direction and being guided along the outside of the hub, wherein the hub takes a shape polygonal in cross-section on the outside to which an axial side of each spoke is adjacent. The invention further relates to a bicycle comprising said drive wheel configured as a rear wheel.

A spoke wheel includes a light alloy rim, a hub, and a plurality of wire spokes connecting the rim with the hub. The rim includes mounting flanges provided at asymmetrical positions with respect to a widthwise center of the rim and is connected with the hub by assembling the spokes to the mounting flanges. The spokes are disposed by being offset to the widthwise center of the rim.

A vehicle wheel, including a rim, a hub, and a plurality of spokes, a first anchor to connect one of the spokes to one of the rim and hub at a connection interface. One of the spokes is pre-tensioned by a pre-tensioning means. The first anchor may be manipulated between: (i) a released orientation where the connection interface is longitudinally released from the spoke to permit independent longitudinal displacement therebetween; and (ii) an engaged orientation where the connection interface is longitudinally connected to said spoke to limit independent longitudinal displacement between the two and to maintain the pre-tension of said spoke. The pre-tensioning means is discreet from the first anchor.

A bicycle wheel hub that includes a hub shell having a first end and a second end. The bicycle wheel hub also includes a first flange adjacent the first end and configured for the attachment of a first plurality of spokes, and a second flange adjacent the second end configured for the attachment of a second plurality of spokes.

A bicycle wheel includes: a hub with a hub spindle and two ears disposed on the hub spindle, the hub spindle having an axial direction; a wheel frame having a connecting portion; and a plurality of spokes each having a connecting section and two support sections, wherein the connecting section of each of the spokes is inserted through the connecting portion and divided along the axial direction into a first side and a second side, one of the two support sections is connected to the first side and one of the ears, another of the two support sections is connected to the second side and another of the ears, and the two support sections are arranged along the axial direction.

A spoke wheel includes a light alloy rim, a hub, and a plurality of wire spokes connecting the rim with the hub. The rim includes mounting flanges provided at asymmetrical positions with respect to a widthwise center of the rim and is connected with the hub by assembling the spokes to the mounting flanges. The spokes are disposed by being offset to the widthwise center of the rim.

A wheel for a bicycle, or other human powerable vehicle, has a hub that includes: (a) an axle for attachment to a bicycle frame; (b) a set of bearings that connect the axle to a rotating sleeve; and (c) at least three connection points fixedly connected to the rotating sleeve. The connection points are used to detachably attach an annular module to the hub using attachment elements that each comprise conical frustum surfaces. The attachment elements are configured to axially press a portion of the hub to a portion of the annular module, as well as radially aligning the hub to the annular module. The annular module also has a set of spoke attachment points configured for tensioned spokes that connect the annular module to a wheel rim. The spoke attachment points are in a circular configuration on two parallel offset planes that are perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the rim.

A wheel for a two wheeled vehicle including a flange and a plurality of spokes, the spokes connecting the rim to the flange, wherein brake force spokes of the plurality of spokes are stronger than drive force spokes of the plurality of spokes. In one alternative, the flange has an inner and an outer area.

The bicycle wheel includes a rim, a hub, a driving device, a plurality of first side pulling spokes, a plurality of first side pushing spokes, and a plurality of second side spokes. The rim has a first side and a second side. The hub is located in a center of the rim. The driving device is connected to the hub which is located on the first side of the rim. Each of the first side pulling spokes and the first side pushing spokes is connected to the rim and the hub, and located on the first side of the rim, respectively. Each of the second side spokes is connected to the rim and the hub, and located on the second side of the rim.
