Hi Everyone
Want to build my own wheels, just wanted to check spoke lengths before ordering, also any advise on best spokes / pattern / special tools would be appreciated.
Thanks

Buy Muson's book. That deals with tools etc including DIY plans. https://www.wheelpro.co.uk/wheelbuilding/book.php
Get a decent spoke key. Cheap ones can round the spokes.
3 cross is most common.
Hope hub measurements are on their site in the technical section and can be trusted.

DT Swiss Competition or Sapim Race spokes, brass nipples done 3 cross would be the best place to start. Keep it simple.
