TomN Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Hello, I've used the DT spoke calculator to see what spoke sizes i need. I've got some calculations, however which ones do i look at?This is the result: What i mean is, do i use the precise calculations or the rounded calculations because the sizing don't match up between the two, well that's what i think.Help would be great.

Revolver Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Use the rounded one. It's easier to measure to in real life, and it's too small a difference to cause any problems building the wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Why are the rounded ones not actually rounded to the nearest MM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Why are the rounded ones not actually rounded to the nearest MM?might be rounded to the nearest available spoke size, i doubt spokes come in every mm, probs like 1mm 3mm 5mm etc just a thought...

eskimo Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 The Ryno is double walled so using 240mm will be fine all round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's cheaper to get them in the same size do that, otherwise just get front and rear sizes. I wouldn't bother buying 4 different sizes either for each flange, your only have to dish the wheel anyway and provided each nipple has ample thread it's fine.
