The compressive load is negligible, that's why you can build a wheel entirely out of non-rigid spokes such as liteweight wheels or https://berdspokes.com/ https

- wiredfool 2y agoThere should never be a _net_ compressive load on a spoke, but a spoke can carry a compressive varying/live load if there's sufficient pre-tension from the building process. You wouldn't want berd spokes to go slack any more than you'd want steel spokes to go slack.
