Does anyone know the full reason behind the offset rear wheel in the 2023 bike?
I guess its the same as the previous version?
It looks very odd
 
Yeah the standard cast wheels. I?m not sure about the other options but having a look at some pictures I think you?re right that the carbon wheels are a perfect 50/50 split.
 
Yes the standard cast wheel has offset spokes.
Not by a small amount either.
I saw a video saying it was due to a tendacy for the bike to slightly veer to the right.
Well i have my bike now and with cruise control on and no hands it still slightly veers to the right so that didnt work lol

Oh dear god, still after all this time? The veering is really annoying and they still can?t get that right! Ffs?Might as well stick with my 2018. Why? Just why?

Its not an issue unless you want to ride a long way no handed.
Its only slight veer to the right
 
I thought it was the clutch cable "pushing" the left handle bar that caused the bike to steer right slightly. Every S1K I've had has done it.
