Could someone check this for me? I'm not here to cause arguments or troll, just wanted a bit if help.
Can you buy the same quality level of spokes for that price? The answer to your question of spoke lenght depends on the number of crosses you want to build with. If you need this level of help, there is nothing wrong with paying the local bloke, who knows and can help you in a fix, the premium he needs to keep his shop open.
