There are a number of spoke length calculators available. Do a search or google. My LBS has a spoke cutter/thread forming machine so they will make any length I need on the fly. They use only DT and charge 1.25/spoke in quantities of one or two. When asked if they will true a laced wheel, they told me to do it myself otherwise it was $75. I think that since I came it with the spoke knew the diameters of the DB and asked for DT, I knew enough to true my own wheel!
