    If the sprocket of a giraffe wheel is welded to the hub
    then how do you replace the spokes on the drive side of
    the wheel?

    The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older, shorter of

    In short, you pray that you don't break ANY of your spokes,
    as they are all equally impossible to replace on a welded
    sprocket set-up.

    You could always grind the weld off, and then take it apart.
