sdeals are good (but expensive on postage these days). I'd suggest using the ACI spokes at Sdeals though - just as good as DT/Sapim/etc but cheaper.

You can also get ACIs cheap on ebay.

Why Sapims?
DT are arguably* better and much cheapness at Rose Bikes.

*Not by me, I use any decent DB spokes. ๐Ÿ™‚

I was recommended to use sapim (over DT) although both my other wheels are DT. The marketing guff does seem to point to nice nipple with the sapim (accepts a slight angle on the spoke due to the head shape).

This will be my first build hence the where to get spokes questions. I will look at the ACI spokes. Any one in particular?
