Intereting. I had 3 sets of 20" wheels made up with low flange hubs spoked 3 cross. The spokes were 188mm. The chart here says 189mm, so I guess there must be a mm or 2 either way because a nipple is quite long, eh ?

Great link . . . will save time measuring ERD's and flange dimensions too

I prefer a small flange before anyone asks  ;D

I'm not so sure Steve, I've had a look in the museum and there looks to be a lot of large flanges with your name on them  :LolLolLolLol:

So what you're saying is a large flange is OK so long its a tight fit?  :LolLolLolLol:
