Quoted By:
Fat here, just bought a new set of wheels with 20 spokes front, 24 spokes rear. Planning to bike with these after the unfortunate demise of my previous hub.
Loaded bicycle, water and tools weight is 313lbs. The wheels have a recommended system weight of 286 lbs. Bought these as they seemed the best off the shelf solution for heavy load.
How fast will my spokes explode and kill me under my astonishing girth? Should I draft my will anticipating the wheels blowing up, followed by related death?
