baie-sukkel Posted May 2, 2010 Share PM Johan Bornman, I am pretty sure he will be able to advise or at least point you in the direction of "help". Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headshot Posted May 2, 2010 Share CRC are useless - I emailed them about this - I wanted a few spares just in case. They referred me to std DT spokes and nipples!! They then advised that not even their UK supplier had any spares for this wheelset.. Please let us know what Joahn B says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenDL Posted May 2, 2010 Share Shimano in SA carry spares - spokes are available - two different lengths, left and right side. As far as hub spares go - the factory set has the same hub as the M775. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=20800 I have found it cheapest just to but a spare hub & strip parts rather than buy the individual parts. Never broken a spoke though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
