Anyone know the right spokes for a front Chris King 15mm ISO on Stan's Crest?
Have looked at the Stan's calculator, but it's not as straightforward as I had hoped
26", I should add.
This is giving me 260.1 and 261 - sound right?
Got same combo and got same results, I bought 260 and 262's but all 262 would have been ok. The spokes I bought only came in even number length's.
Cool, just done the DT Swiss Calculator with C&P'd measurements and it threw up the same.
So one packet of 262s then, you reckon? (I've never built a wheel in my life)
have a look at Rose bikes for your spokes, you won't have to buy them by the box and you could get some 260's and some 262's, they sell them individually or in packs of 20 you will need to buy nipples on top but they are cheep as chips.

Cool - they're really cheap - thanks for that.
When it comes to spokes, it's better to go slightly short rather than slightly long.
If you're calculations are accurate, I'd order a full set of 260mm spokes rather than 262.
Incidentally, I've got a load of DT comp black 260mm spokes kicking about if anybody wants some for cheaper than anywhere else...
