There are spoke suppliers in Mechanics magazine.

The first one that springs to mind is Hagons - I've seen their work.

I think Wyldes ? up at Leeds do re-builds.....Central Wheel's do, but have a mixed reputation lately......Hagon's as mentioned.
I think a lot of the 'builders' use Central Wheels 'stock'.

I bought my last set of Stainless spokes and nipples from Hagon. They were not butted, but I believe they will supply these if requested.

Original spokes (galvanised) are still available from Silvers.
