Spokes too long on wheel build..........
region11:
I always measure my hubs, but have found 188mm pretty much cover most LF hubs for a 3x pattern. Never laced a 4x. :)
dancetothedrummersbeat:
I was sold the wrong spokes when lacing low flange suzue hubs to araya 7X's. I got a sturdy file & files the excess off. Took about 15 mins per wheel. Had to be careful not to file the alloy araya's though. The file on alloy would be like a hot knife through butter!

I may be grumpy Dave, but fook me how many times are we going to have threads asking for spoke lengths or that spokes are too long etc when the tools are on this site to ensure it doesn't happen?
Is lazyness/stupidity really an excuse ;) :P
