I think the spoked wheels look great. But…..
I’ve ruled out a nine T as a daily ride because of them. Those spokes are not sealed. So the tubeless tyres have been fitted with inner tubes. I suspect that means if you pick up a nail or a screw you have a very rapidly deflating tyre.
BMW have the know how to seal the spokes or use rims such that the spokes sit outside the bead. I don’t see why anybody would want to go back to using tubes.
