Trying to find spare spokes for Spank Oozy 29 wheels. Measured the straight pull spoke length at 307mm. They're round, 2mm dia and have black alloy nipples.
Because they're the 28h version wheels from a couple of seasons ago, a guy at Hotlines didn't seem to know whether they had spares, great!
Does anyone know where I could source maybe a pack of ten from?
You can get DT Swiss Competition Straight Pull Spokes in 307mm.
It does look like a special order job, and its pretty expensive but -

They do have them as a 2-7 days special order option.
I can't see any reason not to use those, they will be slightly different to the stock spokes. But should be fine!
Edit - Loads of places on eBay selling 306mm versions in the UK. From my wheel building days, you would be fine with a single mm shorter.

Excellent thanks handyman
Give my mate Ryan at Ryan Builds Wheels a shout. He can custom cut up to 310mm and usually has straight pull Sapims in stock:
