What is the difference between three-spoke wheels and spoked wheels?

[VanPatrick]

The differences between three-spoke wheels and spoked wheels are as follows: 1. Type: Whether it's a three-spoke one-piece wheel or a six-spoke one-piece wheel, they are both one-piece wheels. Unlike traditional wheel sets where the hub and rim are usually connected by spokes, bearings are used instead of the traditional hub. 2. Application scenarios: Spoked wheels allow for the adjustment of spoke tension. If the wheel becomes oval-shaped due to impact, the roundness of the wheel can be restored by adjusting the spoke tension. Therefore, mountain bikes generally use spoked wheels because if one-piece wheels are used, once the wheel is subjected to vibration or impact, it will become oval-shaped and affect riding.
