Hi all!

my wife just informed me that one of the spokes on Elwood Juniors Frog 62 front wheel has snapped... Would I please sort it out?

Of course I will, but I won't be near the bike for a few days, which means that I can't measure the lenght of the spoke. I can't seem to find information about spoke lenghts and diameter on the Frog website. Any of you guys happen to have the information handy?

I would really like to have a new spoke ready to put on the next time I see the bike.

Thanks in advance!

Measuring from centre of hole on hub to edge or rim is approx 235mm by my measurements.
This is an older team sky frog. See photo.
Hope that helps

Spokes have always been the weak point on Frog bikes so it would be worth seeing if any others are about to fail whilst you are doing the job

Slowol, you are a saint!

I contacted my local Frog reseller first, but they did not have anything in their workshop manual (!) and could not be bothered to go measure...

They offered to sell me a new wheel, though!

Once again, singletrackworld reigns supreme!

Just about to buy an ex rental frog 62 from LBS. What's a decent price? 2 yr old, serviced and a few scuffs in usual places on brake handles etc.

Try looking on the Frog and Isla for sale group on Facebook or eBay sold prices. Dealer will probably charge a bit more.
General price sea to bwe £180 to £200 for good nick ones. I've got a frog 55 which I need to advertise so I've been looking.
