So I'm about to attempt another wheel build, haven't build a lot of wheels but I thought i might as well start to try and build as its kinda fun to do all your own bike stuff.

Figured i should just double check with the gurus on here before i order some spokes.

What spoke lengths do you get for 36h open pro rims with record hubs 3cross (the 99-2007 kinds) for front and rear wheels?

Im not as lazy as you might think cause i have calculated and come up with some numbers myself i just want to confirm the lengths that i got with your reponses (yeah i believe in the good hearts of the forum to take the time to come up with some) :beer:

Thanks!

Many thanks spud!

I can now order spokes with peace of mind !
I got close enough and since rounding up thats the best option.

Edit: hmm did you change your response potato? now I'm confused :)

I've always used 602mm ERD, measured with Wheelsmith rods, calc. and round up. And 46mm RH flange rear but spokes are cut plus/minus 1mm so....

Yeah after some goggling it seems that both 602 and 605 are used as ERD for these rims depending on who you ask. But il go your route.

Thanks
