Answer / parag

The spokes distribute the load throughout the rim.
Here's how :
Make a small ring of a thin steel wire. Hold it between your
finger and thumb, and press. It will bend.
Now, tie a straight piece of steel wire diagonally, and
press the ring at the ends of the straight wire. You will
need much more force.
But, the same ring will bend with lower force, if you press
it at points where straight wire is not there.
Now, tie many such straight wires on the ring, and then
press the ring.
'hope you got the picture clear :)
