Hello , bought some spokes today to build some suzue sealed on a pair of 1.75 pro class rims and some suzue unsealed on some 1.5 araya aero's and they're to small by about a cm.  Hubs are low flange and front is smaller than back. Anyone got any experiance in buying spokes for these set ups or know where an online spoke size calculater can be found?,
thanks in advance,
monsieur le mark :4_17_5:

Mark ... use 194mm for low flange on the PC rims  :daumenhoch:

I used 192's on the Araya Aero wheels you've just bought from me

Thanks Steve, the problems began when I told the shop owner that I had 194mm off him last time and had to grind off about 3-4mm and we started looking at other sizes and I think he must of given me 184mm for some reason. That was my night ruined , I had it all mapped out, was going to watch Lillies and build wheels...

DOH ... the numbers add up if you got 184's by mistake. You'll defo need shorter spokes for the Aero rims which have a smaller ERD

Here's a useful on-line calculator ... !!! CLICKETY CLICK !!!   :daumenhoch:
