Post by: moanjam on September 25, 2009, 05:07 PM

just done a calc for spoke lengths and i got 185 front and 186 rear these were worked out from end of nipple to end of nipple as the rim dia,  will i get away with 184mm spokes ?

Sure will mate  :daumenhoch:  

What rims and hubs are you using ?    Small flange or Large flange    ( ooooooh errrrrr   :LolLolLolLol: )

If you are using them asahi spokes they come with slightly longer nipples too so that helps  ;)

I got mine from JT smooth (John) on here .  :daumenhoch:
