CWC spokes

--- Quote from: DomP on February 29, 2024, 06:21:50 PM ---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.

I would get them re made. It will not only make it correct for you but it will help the next guy as they hopefully start making them correct in the future.

Hagon Shocks also supply spoke kits in both galvanised and Stainless with various nipple options.

That’s great to know there are other suppliers of stainless spokes.

I have used this guy a few times. Excellent and he makes the spokes to fit. He builds wheels and will supply spoke kits to pattern if you send him your old ones. Works from a shed at his house and knows his stuff. Been doing it for years.

I'm not sure I can be bothered with sending them back unless the slight cilurve the outer spokes are taking is a big issue, visually its next to unnoticeable unless I put a steel rule against it.
