Spoke Length

[Jerry Lewis]

Hi Guys

I have a set of 2nd Gen Zipp Hubs(Firecrest) that I am looking to build up with the older Zipp 404 Rim (Model before Firecrest) and was just wanting to know if anybody could help with 1-What the spoke length should be 2- A good wheel builder in Cape Town that could possibly build these for me.

 

Thanks in advance.

Gerald

Let your wheelbuilder measure the hubs and rims and calculate the spoke length for you.

If you are taking to a wheel builder then they calculate and build the wheels, if building yourself, there are lots of calculators on the net http://www.prowheelbuilder.com/spokelengthcalculator/
