2383.1when biking becomes an expensive hobby...NOVA::FISHERRdb/VMS DinosaurMon Aug 17 1992 12:056
    I don't know anything about any specific composite spoke wheel other
    than "when they go out of true, that's it, they are out of true"
    
    (as in can't be fixed.)

    > December 1991 issue of Bicycling...
    
    December '91?  Well, those wheels are already obsolete then!
    
    The NMR Unobtanium Spokeless Wheels (which use Nuclear Magnetic
    Resonance to keep the bike suspended above the spinning rim)
    will be here any day now.  Best just wait on those...  :-)
    
    Seriously, I'll have a look for the issue, but know of no one
    hereabouts with actual experience on them.
