Jack Morton Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 When ordering spoke's of tartybikes i assume, Just tell them which hub and rim you have and they send the right size spokes.Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashleysmith Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 nah, i work in a bike shop... we deal with bmx and trials as well as other stuff... but cause my hub hasnt arrived yet (so i cant measure it) i dont know what size spokesreally i'm just wondering if anyone has an onza wheel, where they can measure the spoke length for me and let me know so i can get spokes sorted quicker... otherwise i have to wait till next week to sort the wheel out....Ash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Get onto Tartybikes.co.uk, find your hub on there and it should have the measurements. Make a note of them, then measure your rim, then get onto wheelpro.co.uk and whack the details into there. Then you'll get results with different lengthss for different spoke patterns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashleysmith Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 hmmm 173mm... seems a bit big... could be wrong though.... can someone check for piece of mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 hmmm 173mm... seems a bit big... could be wrong though.... can someone check for piece of mind?That sounds right for 3x. Most 19" wheels tend to be around 174mm unless it's a shallow rim. Around 180mm for 4x. But those are averages that i am basing them on.
