There’s always the option of setting your monitor resolution to 640 x
480.

Somehow I had always thought that the springing back would only occur when unloaded. Now I saw that it happened while riding. Apparently the frame forces the rotating wheel back into its shape. Very very cool to watch, good idea to add the slomo too.

I doubt that the frame pushed the wheel back into shape. The torque
from the frame on a wheel would tend to push the part in contact with
the ground further out of true (assuming it went out of true from
being pushed by the crank). What we see in the video is the wheel
returning to its natural shape as the spokes relax after being
stretched.

I can’t view the video? Anyone have it or know of it’s new locations? Thanks.
