Just to add my 2c.
The diagram shows the distance between the flanges not being even.
Last bikes were also cheeky and went with the 6mm offset to the non drive side
rear end. Thus giving a even 50/50 distance between the flanges, same spoke
length and stiffer rear wheel. Some of the big wheel problems could've been
solved with a bit of ingenuity, and not showing a new standard.
On the front end I totally get the perfect distance offset on the front hubs.
But hey, forks are easier to change than frames, but where's the profit in
that.
