Message: To my knowledge no one has ever managed to actually prove, in this application, that black spokes are weaker.

General concensus is that it's total shite, not denying the theory before you send me a barrage of waffle Cormac, but there are a hell of a lot of black spokes out there, and they don't all spontaneously snap.

Incidentally my Crossmax rims were anodised. And you don't tend to see anodised hub flanges snapping, more than bare ones and they're under massive amounts of load.
