I've been calculating the spoke length for a road bike wheel build.

Two different calculators have given slightly different numbers.

Front:287 and 287.6
Rear:NDS 289 and 290.3, DS 285 and 286.3

Which numbers should I go with or between the two, e.g. 290 and 286 for the rear?

Thanks
Matt

Unless your spokes are available in 1mm length increments, then 288mm front, 290 and 286 rear.

I'd go for the same lengths as the other chap
