was thinking on picking up some extra spokes after i broke one this morning on my rear 27 x 1 1/4 - the spoke is about 12 inches and with the calipers came in 1.95ish on the width

was asking the LBS about picking up a bunch of spokes so i dont have to run in every time one breaks - also i like to hoard parts so there you go - but anyway...

is there too much variability with spoke sizes to bother picking up some extras

all my wheels are 27 x 1 1/4 but obviously there could be differences in lenght and width? or is there a standard size out there that i could search out on ebay or the LBS that would generally meet my needs should another spoke go down
