Haven't had any spare time recently to get stuck into this. I've downloaded the Wheelpro book but so far only noted how to make up the ERD spoke and elastic thingy, what a good idea!
Is there a data base for the hub measurements as I don't trust myself to get that bit right....?
Ta.

Think the DT spoke calculator includes most hubs.

Unfortunately not, though given the phenomenal number of standards and models etc it's not too surprising.

You can usually find hub specs on the manufacturer website/via email with relative ease though. Failing that, it's pretty simple to measure up if you've got the hub in your hands 🙂

Ok thanks, will have a look later. For some reason I thought I'd seen somewhere on the wheelpro site ages ago.
Apart from DT any other sites that have hub info?
