If double butted spokes are more flexible than straight gauge spokes would a
large flange hub with butted spokes be as comfortable to ride as a small
flange hub with straight gauge spokes or would I just be destroying any
advantage gained by the use of the large flange hubs by using such spokes?
I've sure wasted some money on fancy spokes if this is so. I know this is
getting pretty close to "How many Angels can dance on the head of a Campy
drop out screw?" thing I usually eschew but it is running around in my mind
and I'll be darned if I an figure it out.
