Abstract: A spoked wheel assembly includes a wheel hub with right and left end flanges spaced apart from each other along an axis, a wheel rim around the hub, left spokes respectively coupled to the left end flange at left spoke mounting holes and to the rim at spoke mounting points, and right spokes respectively coupled to the right end flange at right spoke mounting holes and to the rim at other ones of the spoke mounting points. The right and left spokes are arranged alternately in one of a first spoke pair disposed along substantially parallel planes and a second spoke pair disposed along intersecting planes. Thus, the rigidity of the rim in the direction of the axis can be increased.
