Title: What size spokes do I need ??
Post by: Nigel on July 09, 2018, 01:18 PM
Bought some rims and some suzue hubs and thought I would have a go at building some wheels up
Jesus Christ can I work out the size of spokes I need
I’ve measured the length on other wheel sets I’ve got but all seem to be slightly different
Looked at a calculator for it and that fooked my head up
Does anyone have a simple step to working the right length out
Thanks

The suzue hubs are low flange 40 mm diameter holes
