Abstract:
A wheel including a peripheral rim, a central hub, and spokes connecting extending and tensioned between the rim and the hub, as well as a method for manufacturing such a wheel. The method includes distributing the spokes in two groups, a first group of spokes lacking a tensioning device, and a second group of spokes having a tensioning device; assembling the spokes to the rim and to the hub, and then adjusting the tension of the spokes with tensioning devices of the second group of spokes.

Abstract:
A cycle wheel and methods of manufacture of such a wheel. The cycle wheel has tensioned spokes between a hub and a rim and is equipped with a wheel fairing attached to the rim. The rim is provided with two grooves for receiving two radially outer edges of the wheel fairing, and the rim exerts, in the area of the two grooves, a centripetal force that blocks the radially outer edges of the wheel fairing in the grooves.
