Couldn't you be bothered to measure either Carl?!!! Sounds like me with my Bullseye/7X quandary! Still haven't sorted it! Ive found its difficult to get an accurate reading of the flange diameter with just a tape measure...

I've just laced some low flange hubs to 24" 7x with a 3 cross using 240's and they are a bit too long $:-\$
