Bicycle wheel of a wheel, it is becoming increasingly common to find specialty wheels with different lacing patterns on each side. A spoke can connect the hub to the rim in a radial fashion, which creates the lightest and most aerodynamic wheel. However, to efficiently transfer torque from the hub to the rim, as with driven wheels or wheels with drum or disc brakes, durability dictates that spokes be mounted at an angle to the hub flange up to a "tangential lacing pattern" to achieve maximum torque capability (but minimum vertical wheel stiffness). Names for various lacing patterns are commonly referenced to
Comparison of Direct Connect software different hubs can be supported through hub specific solutions or hub software neutral extensions using scripts/plug-ins. Comparison of Direct Connect software This article compares features and other data about client and server software for Direct Connect, a peer-to-peer file sharing protocol. Direct Connect hubs are central servers to which clients connect, thus the networks are not as decentralized as Gnutella or FastTrack. Hubs provide information about the clients, as well as file-searching and chat capabilities. File transfers are done directly between clients, in true peer-to-peer fashion. Hubs often have special areas of interest. Many have requirements on the total size
