Can anyone explain why some of the TE-37's have spokes that are flat , then the other TE-37's have spokes that curve toward the center ?

the ones with flat spokes are centerlock racing wheels, which usually has the offset so that the wheels don't have lip and has good brake clearance. the ones curving inward are regular street-use TE37s (i might be BSing)

I think Globe nailed that one the head...

I also think that the centerlocks have COMPLETELY different offset requirements and "angled" spokes may be not possible due to fit issues...
