Spokes and Nipples Set - Butted Stainless Steel - Nickel Plated Brass Nipples

Which size ? Sizing spokes is quite easy if you follow this simple guide ;

Over the years we've amassed a good knowledge of which spokes fit which bikes. Even so, it is advisable to provide a sample spoke with your order and to supply details on the length, gauge, angle and length of bend of spokes required (see diagram below).

L = Length of Spoke    A = Angle of Spoke 
G = Gauge of Spoke    B = Length of Bend of Spoke

Example: 40 Spokes,  L = 150mm,  G = 8/10,  A = 90 Degree,  B = 12mm

When ordering butted or double butted spokes both gauges should be given. For example, if the spoke tapers from 8 to 10 gauge, write it as 8/10g.

Spoke Gauges are as follows:
12 Gauge = 2.60mm (.104" dia)
10 Gauge = 3.20mm (.124" dia)
9 Gauge = 3.60mm (.142" dia)
8 Gauge = 4.00mm (.156: dia)
7 Gauge = 4.45mm (.171" dia)
6 Gauge = 4.87mm (.192" dia)
5 Gauge = 5.15mm (.203" dia)
4 Gauge = 5.70mm (.224" dia)

Please note: that lengths of bend will be supplied as near to requested size as possible. It must be remembered that stainless steel does not bend as tightly as galvanised material, so not all requested bends are attainable.

Spokes supplied are replacements not replicas.  Some spokes may vary in length of bend or angle from original. When assembled and tensioned these spokes will bed and sit correctly in the hub.
