Clark Kent Ti frame and pineapple hub

Ey up. Never seen out like that Pinapple Hub before.

8 holes on each flange and 16 on the inner tabs? So that would make a 32 spoke wheel with a very interesting pattern!

Would the inner be radial? How could they cross with the outers? I bet is is a Biatch to build.

Does anyone have any good pics of a wheel built with one of these?
 
It looks completely radial. Is that by design or just the easiest way to build it? It looks great regardless!
 
Think its the most easy way to do. You can make a cross 2 or 3 without going over one.... But dont know why that should be more difficult then a normal 32h hub. Only thing is to match the right size spokes for them....need 2 sizes I think.

I have a few front and rear sets. Here's a set built into my Boulder (3x front and rear)

thats the only complete/built rear Ive ever seen! I was offered some shells and the plans to make the missing parts a while back, but out of laziness I declined.

I'd love a rear one Roly, can you still get them?
