They have been an integral part of the design of the wheel for 100's if years I believe. Do you ride a harley with solid wheels?

Ye, until the Alloy Wheel was invented.
You and yours are dragging this country back in time laddie.
Get a proper bike, with plasticy bits, nae seat, ankle killing peg postion, wrist killing bar position, thimble sized fuel tank and jail baiting performance. Jees.
Call yourself a biker.
