Spoke lengths
Check your rim and hub against the maker's sizes before you order spokes.
Rear wheel, 32 hole, J-bend spokes, 489 mm ERD.
| Side | Spokes | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Left (disc side)3-cross | 16 | 235 mm235.2 worked out |
| Right (drive side)3-cross | 16 | 234 mm233.9 worked out |
Rounded to the nearest mm. Between two sizes, go for the shorter one.
Tension: the left spokes run at 53% of the right side's tension. Bracing angles 6.3° left, 3.3° right. That's a big difference: an asymmetric rim or more crosses on the slack side would even it up.
Weight: these spokes and alloy nipples come to about 172 g (about 193 g with brass nipples).

Ping tuner: what each side should sound like
Pluck each spoke between the rim and where it last crosses another, and match the note. Every spoke on one side should sound the same. It's a guide to even tension by ear, not a tension meter.

These lengths come from the makers' published sizes and a standard sum. Rims and hubs vary from batch to batch, and sizes you put in yourself are only as good as your measuring. Travers Bikes takes no responsibility for spoke lengths worked out with this calculator, or for spokes, wheels or parts bought or built using them.

Want me to build it?
I hand-build wheels in Rochford with Nextie carbon rims and Hope, DT Swiss, Chris King, Shimano, Nextie and SON hubs. I work out the spokes and order them, so getting the length right is my job, not yours.
