its 184 mm 4x for small flange if there araya aeros Dave

184mm should do 3x on regular 20" rims which would build a nicer wheel than a 4x

For small flange hubs on an Aero rim at 3X it's 184mm and 194mm for 4X. As Gossa has said though 3X makes for a nicer looking wheel.

Just buy loads of different sizes Dave and one of them is bound to be correct.

Either that or pm me and I will work out the correct spoke length for you.

If you need anything done, get it to me soon as I know Nick has a lot of work he wants me to do. Also as we get closer to MK then the diary becomes busier and busier.

pickle · « **Reply #14 on:** March 30, 2010, 11:37 AM »

Nick's are all cheap crappy bits that need to just go straight in the skip........so no worries with his bits.

stidds · « **Reply #15 on:** March 30, 2010, 11:46 AM »

I beg to diifer mate. I''ve built about 10 sets in the last year and they've all been 184mm at 3x on an aero rim.
