kristaps Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 (edited) Hi I am looking for lightweight double butted spokes I wanted wheel smith, but they don`t have so short spokes... (for mod bike ! ) So What about SAPIM spokes???? Someone told me that they are prety week at this place... Can you advice something? Reference of Sapim Race spokes? Thanks, Kristaps !

Headley Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 (edited) Taken from the Tartybikes website: Double Butted spokes build more durable wheels than cheaper plain gauge. Why? The spokes can flex in the centre, rather than transferring the load to the head, which is where spokes are more prone to breaking.
