What spoke calculator do you generally use? I am about to rebuild some DA 7400 road hubs to some TB14s and I have generally used QBP and at least one other (usually Sapim) to check. We have a PW spoke cutter so it isn't a huge deal if I go longer (and I might just go long and buy in bulk and cut them down myself) but I am curious why add 2mm?
