Really? Do you mean wheelsmith fabrications? According to their website, the shortest they produce is 174-310 mm.

Jay Gaerlan writes that the shortest spokes he cuts is 120mm.

Do you have a source that you could pass along?

Thanks.

EDIT: Looks like this place might sell super short spokes. Anyone with any experience with them?
