[#1977892]

So, I've done the spoke length calculator thing and it's told me that I need:

16 spokes @ 265.2mm
+
16 spokes @ 266.6mm length

But CRC only supplies them in 264 266 and 268mm lengths.

Do I... round up, or round down to the nearest available size? ๐Ÿ˜•

If so, which?

Advice please..!

I believe CRC ship them with 14mm instead of 12mm nipples. Have you allowed for this in the calculations?

I hadn't no, and there doesn't seem to be a way of incorporating that into the Spoke Length Calclulator.

But surely that extra nipple length would allow me to safely round down a tad? Maybe..?
