engineers from mavic have proved that odd number of spokes are more aerodynamic. apparently it has something to do w/ even spokes creating turbulence. I'm not sure of the exact benefits from a structural standpoint though. but based on the fact that it takes 3 points to define a plane, a 4th just becomes an unnecessary extra weight, drag, free space real estate.. etc etc blah blah..
read up on it.

Berry type of transformer?
The berry type of transformer is almost similar to the shell type of transformer. This type of transformer has a structure that is similar to spokes of wheel and contains a distributed magnetic circuit.
What is a hub and spoke system?
"Hub and spoke" is a term in air transportation to describe a common method for an airline to organize their flights. Airlines will have hubs in a few cities where most of their flights will originate, with spokes out to non-hub cities. Much like the hub and spokes of a bicycle tire. When flying from one city to another, you will typically have a connecting flight through one of the airline's hubs. This system can also be implemented with other forms of mass transit, and cargo transportation.
Difference between truing and dressing of grinding wheel?
dressing means making the wheel back to its original shape ( means bringing back its cutting edges )The dressing of a wheel in order to return the wheel to its original shape is called TRUING.The removal of swarf, dull grains, and bonding material from a grinding wheel is called DRESSING.Essentially, dressing sharpens the wheel.

If a wheel has 36 spokes how many spaces are there between the spokes?
A wheel with 64 spokes will have 64 spaces between the spokes.
An old fashioned bike wheel has 21 spokes How many spaces are between the spokes?
A wheel with 10 spokes will have 10 spaces between the spokes.
If wagon wheel has 12 spaces between spokes How many spokes does the wheel have 10 11 12 or 14?
A wheel with 12 spaces will have 12 spokes.
How many spokes are on a 26 inch bike wheel?
This completely depends on the wheel. The most common number of spokes per wheel is 36. Some better wheels have 32. Higher performance wheels have even less.
If a wagon wheel has 18 spaces between the spokes how many spokes does it have?
18. Picture it this way. If a wagon wheel had 2 spaces, it is easy to see that it would have two spokes, say, top and bottom. Adding another spoke would block off another space. From this idea, you can see that the number of spaces must equal the number of spokes.
How many spokes are there in the wheel of bicycle if any two spokes from an angle of 30 degress?
360 / 30 = 12 , so 12 spokes in that wheel.
What are wagon spokes?
"Spokes" are the things that branch out from the centre of wheels to the outside edge of the wheel, to stabilise them. So wagon spokes are the things that branch out of wagon wheel centres (usually wooden, in this case). Bicycle wheels also have spokes.
What is a round thing with spokes?
A wheel
What if all the spokes on a wheel broke?
Then the wheel would collapse. Which would happen some time Before all the spokes had gone.
What is another name for wheel spokes?
Spokes that are contained within the wheel's circumference, being fixed in a semi-permanent manner to allow the circular movement of the said wheel.
If a wheel is 68 inches in diameter and the spokes are spaced on the wheel 19.41 inches apart what is the linear distance between the points where the two spokes attach to the wheel?
18.4 inches
Why are spokes filted in the cycle wheel?
So the wheel is flexible but firm
