Abstract
A wheel, (1) particularly for a cycle, includes a circular rim (2), a hub (3) concentric with the rim, and spokes (4) connecting the hub (3) to the rim (2). The rim, the hub, and the spokes are made of a polymerized composite material. The spokes (4) are paired two by two on either side of the bond plane of the wheel and are attached without tension at their ends onto the hub (3) and onto the rim (2).
