We are offering individual stainless steel, plain, 14 gauge spokes
(2mm diameter) in increasing value with increasing number purchased.
Spokes come in silver and black and are available in different sizes. This listing is for silver spokes. We also sell separately on Ebay sets of black plain gauge spokes and black and silver butted spokes. (We send Pillar, DT, Alpina or Halo if Sapim are out of stock in the length you require.)
Each
spoke comes with its own same coloured, 12mm long, brass nipple; be
aware that not all spokes on Ebay are offered with the nipple. We also sell a range of coloured nipples and alloy nipples from our Ebay shop.
Plain
gauge spokes are cheaper and have less spring and strength than butted
spokes but do not result in a heavily buckled wheel when they break; for
this reason they are the spoke of choice for expedition riders, tourers
and long distance riders. They are easy to replace and repair and
although not as strong as butted the strength characteristics are still
high.
Spokes
listed as 'cut & rolled' we cut to length on our own professional
Japanese Kowa spoke cutting machines which roll the threads, as against
cutting them, as this creates a stronger more precise threaded section
with gives strength characteristics the same as Sapim factory spokes.
