ABSTRACT:
A fiber reinforced composite hub has a plurality of fiber reinforced spokes having first portions which define a drive shaft bore and second portions which mate to an innermost layer of a fiber reinforced flywheel rim. Both the rim and hub are preferably produced as stabilized preforms which are integrally or separately formed, then assembled and placed into a mold for molding into a unitary structure.
