CWC spokes

DomP:
I think the problem is they have a monopoly on the product

SteveW:
My mate has just placed an order from these guys, I’ll let you know what they’re like when they arrive.
He’s ordered stainless for his RD250

I have had great luck  with the CMS.NL Kits. They even have the correct gold/yellow Cad nipples.
not sure if they have stainless.

DomP:
CWC have offered to take the outer spokes back and copy my samples, in the meantime I've torqued them up and this is the extent of the bow.  Is it something I can get away with or should I get then remade?  I'm just concerned that if they come back wrong or even worse than what I currently have I won't have a leg to stand on.

Reading this Horror story about spokes makes me glad I've passed any problems with rims or spokes to the team at CWS.
I dropped off  my bare F&R hubs 500 hubs for powder coating & building with new valanced alloy rims SS spokes etc & for tyres to be fitted in December 2023.

When I enquired as to progress a couple of weeks ago the rims were at the Anodisers. That said when they did my 400 rims they were spot on aside from a tyre being fitted wrongly - an error they sorted foc by collecting the wheel & delivering it back.

My BiL has used them for many years never having an issue with the standard of builds mainly on old 2T Yamahas.
