Buying spokes


Hairy

Recommended Posts

wheel size? spoke length? http://dialdbikes.co...oor-spokes.html

any 1.8mm butted longer spokes?

Dialed don't have one of the lengths I am looking for ... I have sent them an email asking when more is expected

 

Then longer spokes ... chat to KIWI ... he unfortunately does not have the shorter lengths I need.

Being an ebay Noob .... Ebay.co.uk or .com?

Do both, works the same when you buy online via ebay

 

Have you tried your LBS and asked them to order?

LBS comes in at R17/R18 per spoke .... my budget was built around the R7 mark as per the Rapide spokes ... moerse difference if you are already over budget on your project build

R1152 for LBS Spokes @ 64 units

That's a huge diff, I got my spokes from Chain Reaction, somehow couldn't source them here.
