For information, my BMW R100R (1992 vintage) has straight spokes, out of the hub, in a straight line through the the edge of the rim. This also permits a tubeless tyres in a spoked rim. And that was 25+ years ago. Why everyone doesn't build wheels like this now, I don't know.

If I remember right, no one knew how to true them, and BMW did not even sell individual spokes - they said if a wheel is damaged, replace it. Don't know if that has changed.
