Thanks, that is very clever, and cool.

 

To be technical, they are still spokes, and they are still tensioned, just not in the usual means.

I now know what my next upgrade is. However at $3000, I'm going to have to start saving.

They don't, the whole wheel is woven as one piece, if a spoke breaks and the wheel is still under warranty, they will issue you a new wheelset. By the way this was my teammates wheelset.
