Title: 218mm spokes
Post by: bobbysam on January 24, 2012, 05:16 PM

does anyone know where I can buy 218mm spokes? I have a 1992 GT mini and I need to re-lace the wheels, the Hubs are High flange Suzue, not sure about the rims but I'm pretty sure they are original.

Thanks in advance

Bobby

Check out Ashfield cycles. They have a shop on the bay & stock all lengths...including nipples...

I laced my 20x1-3/8" to high flange hubs with 194's in a two cross pattern

Much more readily available and being a mini they don't really need the added strength of three or four cross.
