Spokes and hubs.....
Andy68:
Where can I get 120mm spokes for my skinny Ukais and does anyone do axle kits for Suntour hubs?

120mm spokes :shocked: That's one seriously large flange hub set your running :D
Andy68:
Oh dear...... :crazy2: This is gonna be my first bash at replacing spokes. So is there rocket science involved in correct lengths? I just measured from end to end, 120mm.

120mm is very short for 20" rims .
When you say skinny wheels im assuming they are 20 x 1 3/8 ths rims ???
In which case i would say it's more likely to be nearer to 220mm , i built some with 215mm spokes.
Tell me the size of the wheels and the hubs you want to use and i'll do my best to help on the correct spokes ;) Sean (Stidds) has done a spoke calculator and wheel build thread in the Tech and resto stickies :daumenhoch:

Feck me..... sorry, I wrote down 220 and typed 120... twice! I'm a tit!! :uglystupid2: 220 it defo is as I removed a couple from the wheels earlier. :daumenhoch: Got 2 pairs of 3/8ths complete wheels but could really do with all spokes replaced just to tart em up a bit.
