I remember reading something in one of the mags years ago saying that dished wheels we're better than spoke on the strength arguement. I think taking this into account though, the manufacturers won't want to be making "rubbish" parts that won't sell, so while spoke wheels will probably never be as strong as dish, I've broke plenty of dish wheels, and to be quite honest, anything that's going to break a spoke wheel, is most likely going to break a dished wheel anyway, so just find what you think is best and go with it. Personally, I'm thinking of getting some black schuey spokes pretty soon, but I'd absolutely love some Schuey Cat 2000 style 3 spoke wheels for the Shark
