Spoke Length help PLEASE !!!
 

I need to establish the spoke length for the following front wheel...... Large Marg Lite rim to a Hope Pro 2 Front Hub ( 9 x 100 ). My searching so far gives me Left ( 261.4) and Right ( 262.4 ).

My rear wheel needs 263.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Nobody on here is likely to know spoke lengths off the top of their head like that, normal procedure is to use an online spoke calculator.

However, if you've already done that and you're just not sure what to do with the results you've gotten, I'd just use 262mm spokes for both sides. You don't need to be stupidly precise, there's plenty of wiggle room, so to speak.

+1 If you want to double-check re-measure and use a different calculator or check this page, rather than expect that someone else is going to do the work. Ditto on same length for both anything length within 1 mm of spec is fine.

As the others said, measure your components and enter the data into a spoke calculator. It seems that's what you did already, so I don't know what you hope for here.

However, check your measurements and data entries CAREFULLY. For example you came you with rear spokes longer than front, which is very rare, even factoring a front disc hub. That's likely an error someplace along the line.

Hi,

Don't most rear wheels need different length spokes for each side ?

rgds, sreten.

Not necessarily. An offset rim and/or a hub with a larger NDS flange can result in the same length on both sides.

+1 Also many disc hubs are very close to symmetrical, but as I mentioned earlier, longer spokes in the rear are rare, though not impossible.

Most is irrelevent. If the properly calculated length can be met within 1 mm for each side then the same length can be used, as noted earlier.
