dirtypot Posted August 28, 2018 Share Does anyone know where to get different coloured spokes from?For example, the two yellow spokes on Mavic wheels, the red spokes on Roval wheels, the green or blue spokes on some of the bikes on the Evil thread. Where do they come from? I've only ever been able to find black spokes locally.Any local options that aren't plastic straws? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wannabe Posted August 28, 2018 Share Wanted to say, slip correctly colored "heat shrink" tube over spokes, heat up, and there you are.Is what I did with my AMC wheels, lasts quite well. Cheaper and easier than sourcing a colored spoke. DieselnDust and dirtypot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both frequently used by Trailtech Cycles in Nelspruit - that's why you see them on so many Evils Give anyone there a shout - very helpful bunch of guys. dirtypot and TNOSE_E 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwan Kemp Posted August 28, 2018 Share I9 spokes are proprietary Wheelsmith have colored options and DT offer their aerolite spoke in red. Be not fooled by the name, they can handle DH duties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
