Spokes

Brand/Model	Price	Type/Gauge	Application Notes
DT Competition	Silver Black	Double Butted 2.0/1.8/2.0 (14/15/14)	The Double-Butted DT Competition is a great all-around spoke. These Swiss-made stainless steel spokes have three thicknesses: 2.0 (14 gauge) mm at the ends. 1.8 mm (15 gauge) in the middle. Not only does this save weight, but the thinner middle section gives the spoke, and the wheel, greater elasticity for increased durability. 12mm brass nipples included

Other Gauges and Colors

The spokes listed above are generally kept in stock in natural silver color (Many sizes available in black too!). You can order them in any quantity you desire.

We stock an unusually wide range of sizes of spokes, but that means that we can't also stock unusual colors or gauges that we don't recommend.

Length Calculations

We provide a downloadable spoke calculator on our Website, but results are not guaranteed.

If you wish, you may order spokes and have us do the calculation for you. We'll need to know the rim size and model, the hub make and model, and number of spokes.

NOTE: Spokes are not returnable under any circumstances, sorry, even if we do the calculation and get it wrong.

Nipples

Standard 12 mm nickel-plated brass nipples are included in the spoke prices listed above. Black spokes come with black colored brass nipples.
