An asymmetric rim on the rear allows for a smaller dish, or even no dish at all.
Why are they not used very widely? Is an asymmetric rim in some respect weaker by itself, than a
symmetric rim of comparable weight and quality?
Or, put it this way. Imagine a |_| -shaped rim and two options. First, drill holes in the middle and
build a strongly dished wheel. Second, drill holes offset to the left and build it less-dished. Will
the second option be superior to the first one in any aspect, or (as I guess) the rim itself will
get noticeably weaker?
Thanks in advance.
