Snapped a couple spokes on the wheels on this bike (borrowed from a friend.. oops!)

https://archive.trekbikes.com/us/en/2014/Trek/fuel_ex_5_29#/us/en/2014/Trek/fuel_ex_5_29/details

"Bontrager alloy, 15mm alloy axle front hub; Formula DC22 alloy rear hub w/Bontrager AT-650 32-hole double-walled rims"

Anyone happen to know the spoke length, before I spend ages measuring the rim/hub dimensions to input to a spoke calculator?

Thanks,

Duane.

This is the right measurement yeah?

Are the threads normally around 10mm? (save me unthreading a nipple)
