Exact specification of formula hub
 
I'm looking to find out the exact specifications of a formula 36h high flange hubset. Like even the diameter of the spoke holes. Anyone know where I can find this info, I looked on the formula website.

I've got a pair of 700c velocity deep v's and these IRO 36h high flange hubs and I'm looking to know what are the exact size of spokes i need. Also, how close does the exact size need to be and the size of spoke you actually buy? If it's within 1mm do you still need to cut them?

Thanks,
J

Try again....the info you need to determine spoke guage and length is there. www.formulahubs.com

Is it just me or does clicking "Track" not show anything at all?

I seriously can't find any specs on the sight for the life of me.

No.

The site is slow, but it works for me. Give it some time.

You should invest in a set of vernier calipers, if you ever plan on doing any more wheelbuilds. This way you can never go wrong. I've seem some hugely wrong numbers posted on forums/websites for things like ERD/hub measurements. All critical things to determining the correct spoke length.

Most but, not all hubs are already in the spocalc spreadsheet.
