Embodiment Construction

[0097] In FIGS. 1 , 2 and 4 , a first embodiment of the wheel according to the invention is indicated with 1 . Such a wheel is in particular the front wheel of a bicycle with V-shaped brakes. Here, the term V-brake is a general term for various conventional brakes that are different from disc brakes.

[0098] The wheel 1 comprises a rim 2 , a hub 3 and a plurality of spokes 5 each having an end 10 for coupling with the hub 3 and an end 15 for coupling with the rim 2 .

[0099] The spokes 5 extend from the hub 3 towards the rim 2 in respective planes including the axis of rotation M of the hub 3 , in particular in a radial direction with respect to the hub 3 .

[0100] The coupling between the spokes 5 and the rim 2 is carried out by means known in the art, for example by means of a threaded joint 20 associated with the free end of the end 15 intended to be coupled to the rim 2 (Fig. 3). The nipple 20 constitutes the stop head of the spoke 5, which, in the tensioned state of...

Abstract

A bicycle wheel comprising a hub (3), a rim and a plurality of spokes (5) extending between the hub and the rim. Each spoke (5) includes a first end (10) coupled to the hub and a second end coupled to the rim. The first end portion (10) comprises an abutment surface (31) in contact with a first stop surface (53) of the hub in a tensioned state of the spoke. On the other hand, a surface (32) substantially opposite to said abutment surface is not in contact with said hub. Said wheel also comprises locking means (48) of said spokes relative to said hub, adapted to prevent the Or limit the displacement of the abutment surface away from the first stop surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bicycle wheel. [0002] The invention also relates to a spoke and hub for a bicycle wheel. [0003] Finally, the invention also relates to a method for assembling a bicycle wheel. Background technique [0004] As is known, the spokes for bicycle wheels consist of a substantially linear element, usually made of metal such as steel or aluminum or alloys thereof, which is provided for connection to the central element of the wheel which constitutes the hub. A first end and a second end for connection to a rim on which a tire is mounted. [0005] Typically, the second end for connection to the hub includes a widened head adapted to be stably received in a seat formed in the hub. On the other hand, the end for connection to the rim comprises a threaded area which allows the connection to the rim by means of a suitable nut or threaded joint and the adjustment of the tension in the spokes. [0006] During the assembly step of th...
