Yea Surly LHT's have them but you always break spokes on the drive side of the back wheel so what do you do? Get some spokes that are to long and bend them like I did in the photo. you just simply hook it into the hole and use the nipple that is in the rim from the old spoke. You won't have to have a free wheel tool with you and it will out last standard spokes! ron.
