A wheel for a two-track motor vehicle has a rim, a hub, and multiple spokes arranged distributed in the circumferential direction and each having a radially inner end and a radially outer end. The hub is arranged asymmetrically relative to a vertical wheel central plane extending perpendicular to a rotational axis direction of the wheel. Each spoke is connected to the rim by its respective radially outer end and connected to the hub by its radially inner end, such that the rim is connected to the hub via the spokes. In terms of a functional installation state of the wheel in a vehicle, at least two of the spokes are secured to the rim with their radially outer ends in different positions in the vehicle transverse direction and/or at least two of the spokes are secured to the hub with their radially inner ends in different positions in the vehicle transverse direction.

SOLID CARBON REAR WHEEL COMPRISING A POLYGONALLY OUTSIDE CONTOURED HUB

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 bicycle hub comprises a tubular body and a spoke attachment part. The tubular body has a rotational axis. The spoke attachment part includes an attachment opening through which a spoke is to extend. The attachment opening includes a first end opening through which the spoke is to extend, and a second end opening through which the spoke is to extend. The second end opening is provided outward of the first end opening in a radial direction perpendicular to the rotational axis. The second end opening has a first maximum length and a second maximum length. The first maximum length is defined in a circumferential direction defined about the rotational axis. The second maximum length is defined in an axial direction parallel to the rotational axis. The first maximum length is larger than the second maximum length.
