Title: Spoke Length
Post by: JT71 on June 06, 2008, 11:51 AM
anyone shed some light on the dark art of spoke length calc.

I've used an online calc, put in my info.

I have:
Araya 7x 48 rims
Peregrine 48 Hubs (think these are Suzue large flanged sealed)

done the measuring and that, put it in the calc and it came out with:

182.5mm for the front
181.8mm for the back

but Jai suggested I needed 180mm for this set up.

can anyone help?
how much play is there, ie if the above is correct do I need 182mm spokes?

is it 4 x pattern on 48's?
