>>1277829>is this actually a thing?Yes, It used to be primarily for track bikes, but is too time consuming for most to be able to afford the labour involved.
Along with 2 to 1 lacing, it's among the best ways to strengthen a low spoke count wheel, or any wheel really.
High flange hubs and tied spokes make for an incredibly strong wheel for sprinting.
