huey, you may be right, but i tried to cheat on a wheelbuild with xl spokes over the summer and i was really not confident in the build so i ate the cost of a box of black revolution spokes (if you need 294's im your guy!!!) and got the right size. today at work ill look for 293's, or just order some spokes

i would agree with the non uniformity thing though. im not the biggest fan.
