ABSTRACT:
A tubeless-tire spoke wheel with spokes threaded directly into integral bores of the wheel rim. The integral bores have closed ends which allow for a large degree of tubeless-tire design flexibility while also providing enhanced strength characteristics. This results in stiffer, stronger designs while providing for lighter, more energy efficient wheels.
