stuey:
Hello all after a little help,

took my araya aeros, large flange hubs and 184mm spokes off to be built and the shop (who normally build all my bmx wheels) say the spokes are too long, can anyone here help what size should i be using?

thanks in advance
stuey

pickle:
Yep they are too long mate, 184's would be fine for a small flange hub.  can't the shop tell you what you need?

stuey:
they are an MTB/racing bike shop  and dont normally do bmx stuff but are they only place in norwich that do wheel builds... so im gonna have to get some else where, what size do i need?

stuey:
sorry didnt really read what youd put there he said the need to be 6mm smaller but the smallest i can find is 180mm whhich is alittle big still..... :(

bof:
im sure 180mm is fine for largeflange hubs aero rim 4 cross pattern but will check tomorrow for you my wheel is locked up at work at the minute, I will take the 184mm off your hand if you need to recoup some money LMK.
