Will soon be re-spoking some Araya rims, these are not received as of yet.
The rims are 20" x 1.75 i think in blue. They have a large flange suntour hub on them. Which length spoke will i require to do this horrible job and roughly how many will i need ?????????
How easy is it a job to re-lace them, considering they are already spoked i thought that removing one and replacing one at a time would be the easiest option for a village idiot like myself.
Cheers guys
Andy

i dont know aout lengths but if you phone alans up im sure he will tell you and if no one on here knows then i have a link to a spoke calculator
best get to the gsport site and absorb the wheel building guide , its not as hard as it looks and with the wheels stripped you can get the rim and hub sparkly clean unlike if you did a spoke at a time :)

here you go andy this should help. I have built a couple of sets of Araya 7x on Large Flange Hubs and this little guide hasn't let me down.
