Difference Between Aluminum Alloy Wheels And Spoke Wheels

For spoke wheels, it includes major parts such as rims, shafts and spokes, which need to be carefully measured and installed to achieve a certain level of balance, and there are two main options, tubeless and tubeless tires, depending on the vehicle design and customer The demand for tubeless is currently the trend of spoke-type models, and the requirements for the tightness of the rim are very high.

Advantages of spoke hubs:

The spoke hubs we see most often are used on off-road motorcycles or Adventure motorcycles. Compared with alloy rims, it has its own strength, because the design is more elastic than alloy rims, and has better shock absorption performance. The weight distribution of external impact is good, and the structure of the spokes is considered to be more flexible.

 In addition, the well-known thing is that the spoke type is lighter than the alloy rim, so the motorcycle's control is also lighter and more flexible.

Disadvantages of rim alloy:

The reliability is lower than that of the spokes. In particular, it is easily deformed in the event of a collision and loses its original stability, which may cause air leakage. If the degree of damage is small, it can be recovered with a pallet press. If the deformation is severe, there is no repair value.

Disadvantages of spoke wheels:

The width of the spoke rim is narrower than that of the alloy rim. This is also a small disadvantage in terms of balance and balance. When used at high speed, the stability and grip area are very low. Compared with models that use alloy wheels, it is more difficult to control the vehicle.
