Looks like new wheels are in order
MT 15 are even cheaper than Deore on Mavic 317 from Merlin
I'd need to budget for new rotors or adaptors but they still look cheap. Particulaly as they have slightly wider rims
But will they be a pain to get fixed. If I take them to a LBS will it all be shrugs and we can't get the spokes?
WH-MT15 use a normal elbowed type spoke so you can fit pretty much anything you like in them. Madison do also carry stocks of the genuine spokes, part number is 012 3454-7.

Nope, they look like standard spokes to me.
I used these for a while - even with Superstar centrelock adaptors they were still sub £90 and were superb. Gave them a pasting on the hartail for a year and only changed them as a mate was selling some Hopes.
