Definitions
- the step of joining the FRP rim body to the tire receiving ring preferably includes the step of providing a mold having a cavity for receiving the FRP rim body in a less than fully cured state and the tire receiving ring that is joined to the rim body. Heat and/or pressure are applied to the joined FRP rim body and the tire receiving body in the mold cavity to cure the FRP rim body and to mechanically bond the tire receiving ring to the FRP rim body.
- the method of producing a rim of the present invention, and the rim produced thereby overcomes this problem by creating a strong metallic bond between the first and second ends of the tire ring at the braking surface, which bond can be machined so that the tire ring is effectively continuous, having no discontinuities between the first and second ends of the tire receiving ring.
- This continuous surface will likely result in a longer lasting rim having a reduced likelihood of premature degradation in its performance characteristics.
- the gap G was reduced to an insignificant distance when a particular prior art wheel 910 was manufactured. Nonetheless, a possibility existed that the size of the gap G could increase over time. It was found that frictional forces exerted on the tire engaging ring 914 by the brakes of the bicycle, when coupled with the expansion and contraction of the tire receiving ring 914 caused by the heat produced by the frictional engagement of the bicycle brake, would, over time, have the potential to either cause the gap G to increase in dimension, or else, would result in the brake surfaces 952a, 952b losing their co-planarity.
