Retro spokes

[JayEmme]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to build a wheels with a Shimano M950 hubs and Mavic X-717 Rims but I cant thing the proper spokes

Any idea where I can find them? I tried everything, from Ebay to online stores and nothing..

The sizes that I need are:

252mm - 32 pieces,
250mm - 16 pieces,
255mm - 16 pieces,

I'm trying to find DT revolution\aerolite or Sapim Laser. Any idea about where I can have them?

Thanks

João

Not cheap though. Chain reaction do spokes but you have to buy 36 at a time. My best bet is always my local shop, then I can get as many at whatever length I need.

No you can split 18/18 when buy them. As they know you need that for the back wheel and with modern front wheels with discs.

even sizes only though, but that shouldn't be a problem

Are you doing Radial / 2X at the back , and radial at the front ?

But where I can chose custom spokes sizes in CRC website?

You type it in when you order as it mentions on their site (in a comments box)
But they only do the 252/254 size in the standard DB spokes (Comp) and not the revolutions.

You could ring or email to find out if they would get them for you.

go to pedal on mate if your after rev's they stock all sizes and are cheaper than the rrp a little bit anyway but who does these days http://www.pedalon.co.uk/acatalog/dt_re ... pokes.html

and only a couple of places will stock odd size spokes most only stock evens so you will have to go te your lbs and get them to order you a box in most likey
