Look at a conventional spoked bicycle wheel.
The result is, with these old fashioned wheels, you actually get NO BENEFIT WHATSOEVER from your spokes, since the pull of the pulling spokes is cancelled out by the backward pull on the static spokes!

This situation is a thing of the past, now that my new, patented POWerwheel spoking system is being made available to the cycling public.

On a 36 spoke wheel, laced the old-fashioned way, 18 spokes do all the work, while the other 18 not only do nothing to help your bike go forward, they are actually pulling you backwards!!!! How could so many wheelbuilders have been so STUPID? It is true that you need SOME backwards spokes for wheel stability, but HALF of them? Get REAL!

New POWerwheel lacing technology tilts the balance in your favor, by using 24 spokes for high-torque pulling power, and reducing the drag of the retarding spokes by only using 12 of them. Since you have half again as many pulling spokes, you gain a 50% power increase right there...but that's not all! By reducing the number of wasteful retarding spokes by 1/3, you get another 33.333333314% more effective power, for a total power increase of 83.333333314%!

This technology is applicable to automobiles also!

LOL.... WHAT A WAY TO GAIN MONEY!  U$ 3,000.00 FOR A PAIR OF RIMS!

Dude, no matter how you arrange your spokes, because when they are tight, they don't move... just transfer the torque from inner ring to outer ring.

You can test this easy... only need to loose your current spokes and reorient them... see if you can go faster.

 It is a very funny web site I can only imagine what things could have occupied those web pages ,things far more strange and politically incorrect.
  I would ask the web designer to spoof the orange cleaning kaboom guy. Place an orange onto the handle of a hammer and call it Glass Master window wand. Maybe get a photo of some birds flying through the window. Now thats clean.

  Look this is from that site!

Using high-tech state-of-the-art niobium-samarium-cobalt magnets...

...When you are heading in a northerly direction, a momentary push of the "N" button will cause your frame to be magnetized so that the front of the frame will be attracted toward the North Magnetic Pole, and the rear of the frame will be pushed away from the South Magnetic pole. As long as you cycle in a northerly direction, you get a constant boost from the Earth's magnetic field! It's like an automatic tailwind!

When your travels take you in a southerly direction, press the "S" button, and a brief stream of electrons will be sent hurtling through the induction coil in the opposite direction, magnetizing the frame in the opposite polarity, so that it will be inexorably drawn in the direction of the Antarctic landmass!

Unfortunately, the current state of this technology does not provide any boost if you're heading east or west...but our scientists and alchemists are working hard on this problem, and we hope for a breakthrough in the near future!

This is priceless!!!  Holy cow... nice find!
