do you actually have to bend the spokes then? that seems like a bit of an odd thing to have to do i think. surely they cant sell a hub in which you cant put a spoke straight through? cheers for the speedy reply.

Hey all, im building a new wheel, this is only the second time i have done this but this one is much trickier. I have... 1x 24" rim, 32x halo spokes 1x onza sealed front disc hub. the problem is... as one side of the hub is bigger in circumference than the other.. i cant put the spokes through the holes on the smaller side because they bottom out on the other side of the hub! the only way i see of doing it is to bend the spokes! which should never have to happen to lace a wheel. either this is a major design fault in the hub or i am missing something and will look like a pillac when i figure it out? anyone have any ideas? cheers Carl.
