Title: Araya aero spoke size
Post by: reyn on November 15, 2007, 07:08 PM

Hi people

Hoping someone can help me.

I need to relace front and rear Areya Aero wheels which have Suzue Low Flange sealed bearing hubs. Can someone tell me what size spokes are needed for the front and rear?

Also whereabouts can I get the spokes from?

Cheers  ;)

184 = 3 cross
194 = 4 cross

Go for 3 cross and the spoke length is 184mm as already mentioned.

I always go for 3 cross because you're then able to replace individual spokes if needed.
