I wasn't arguing for or against a particular spoke, just asking if anyone know of a source of objective data. My own empirical experience is irrelevant, as is that of most here. We've all broken spokes, but none of us have broken enough spokes for our opinions to be valid. I'm a curious fellow and it drives me nuts if I can't get enough info to understand the why.

Back to the OP. I've reviewed the info about those 14/15/13 spokes and I like them a lot. I think I will use them for my next wheel build.
