What size for Pro Class Rims to Bullseye Hubs ???

nosepickben:
Google "dt Swiss spoke length calculator", measure your hub and fill in the form. Experience tells me to round down the result, not up. It give you a spoke length to 2 decimal places. So for instance if it says 186.85 then get 186 or 185, not 187.
