i moved this thread from the Health and Fitness forum to get you more exposure.

The tying of the spokes has been used for ages to help give the spokes more support. Also, if you break a spoke, it will keep it from playing havoc on the rest of your wheel or brake system.

pretty good idea, i saw a kid that had a banshee that had some real big ones on his lugs, he said they can help keep some of the dirt out of the wheel when it spins, they smack on and off they wheel knocking it off. i never wanted to try it cause it looked corney LOL
