I think the only thing I seen that was any good to old spokes is painting them? I think it was young Harris that did it?

after the last set of wheels where i sat there, stripped them, cleaned each spoke then polished each spoke i vowed never to do it again.

waste of time, to save 20 quid on a new set. cleaning up the nipples is a fiddlely job too.

rebuilding wheels is always nicer with a new set of spokes

i always keep the old ones just in case though ;)
