If I replace my standard, straight spokes with double butted....

Is the double butted spoke length exactly the same length as the standard, straight spoke? Straight spokes are 290 and 292mm, so I would get double butted at 290 and 292mm also?

Are the nipples used exactly the same? A nipple is a nipple, regardless of standard or double butted?


I'm thinking it's a "yes, same length" and "yes, same nipples" for both of those.
