Just found my rear wheel’s rim is splitting so new rim and new set of spokes needed for a rebuild. Trying to work out spoke lengths. for the DT calulator here http://www.dtswiss.com/SpokesCalc/Calculator.aspx
I need to know
PCD and flange distances, and also diameter of spoke hole (why?)
hub is a Hope xc like this

rim I plan on is a Mavic XM319 like this http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=71060
spokes will be sapim race or DT comp in silver, with brass nipples, 36 of them laced 3 cross.
Okay so does anybody know the required info for the hub? Or where to find it? or how to measure it accurately enough on a hub that is still laced into a wheel?
Cheers
now, gratuitous photo of the reason for the rebuild (one of several cracks)
I know the cause – spoke tension went out of whack and way too high after some desperate re-truing following a prang a couple of years ago….I’m amazed it has lasted for another 10k miles!
